Title: belated perspective Post by: jim c on June 25, 2005, 04:00:00 AM Hello posters and fence eagles
First, I am in Key West attending my fathers funeral who passed at the age of 88 last week. He lived a great life and was married the second time to a woman 30 years his junior. I thank all here for their heartfelt condolances. I have just braodly reviewed the recent posts and wish to make a few comments. First Jamie "double your prices" was a great piece of advice.(and funny too) I watched Bud on the phone 14 hours a day when he operated Latin Love. He became a councelor for a bunch of neurotic cheapskates. It was the real reason he turned over the agency to his wife's family. As to felinessa, I didn't know we had gender challenged Trolls wellllllllll I always said he was a catcher. Hey Cabin boy decided to jump the fence did you? Catlady? Give me a break! Pussy would be closer. I may be wrong, but I doubt it. I smell tuna in the air. Well I will be here for a few weeks, so expect me to be grumpy for a while until I can go home to Cartagena.

"Tis sweet and commendable in your nature, Hamlet, To give these mourning duties to your father. But you must know, your father lost a father, that father lost, lost his, and the survivor bound in filial obligation for some term to do obsequious sorrow.."

Jim, Sorry to hear about your fathers death.It sounds like he lived a full life to 88 which is about as good as we can hope for now,but perhaps as we approach 88 100 plus will be more possible.Lots of good Italian cooking with olive oil and some red wine perhaps? And I will always remember his comment,"son you don't know how lucky you are never having to see an old woman naked." We have laughed alot about that and I keep it in mind whenever the going gets tough doing what we are doing. I know you are OK with this and we have to keep the bog picture in mind at all times.
