At first qualifying specific friendships as true (opposed to false) seemed almost mean but the humor was great and sarcastic.

I thought of all the people who have saved my life be it; at their peril, out of duty, out of friendship, out of the blue, by intention or accident, and what I found was that at least half were strangers. I wouldn't discount virtual friends in our lives, even if it is an illusion we all believe in.

It is hard to think in terms of who saves our life but like the song says, "without love where would we be now".

It says something good about our society and the stranger.

Hey Red you sound like a Wilde expert.


Merry Christmas.

A friend will help you move, a true friend will help you move the bodies. Enjoy celebrating anything that can't run away fast enough. Cheers to all!

"True Friends always stab you in the front, Oscar Wilde."

??
I bet he didn't actually say that.
At any rate, Oscar Wilde clearly had more wit than wisdom.

However that turns out, Merry Christmas to All.
