Oh, Peter! Another classic! Tsk!

BtheB, thank you darlin', that is so sweet of you. Fortunately it wasn't quite that bad with my mom. The last time she moved, I went through everything and tossed out tons of stuff. She even had bank statements from the 60's, in 1995! I guess part of it was her generation. Having grown up during the Depression, in a large family, she just always thought that something would have some use, someday....kind of as it sounds the song says. You are Sich a Sweet Sam:-)

Now, I heard another inspirational thing this morning on NPR. I didn't hear all of it, but it was on a master of ballet, an Englishman by the name of Franklin. Apparently his memory is beyond photographic and incorporates everything, the music, the steps, the people, etc. that he has known over the years. Besides adding historical notes to archives of old music scores and dance memorabilia, he is going to dance in several productions, soon, at the ripe old age of 85!! It was delightful and you can hear it, after today when they put up thier archives, at http://www.npr.org...just look for the Weekend Edition program for Sunday and it should be there. Here's a blue clickie for the main page.

Thanks, ya'll,
