Looking foolish does the spirit good. The need not to look foolish is one of youth's many burdens; as we get older we are exempted from it more and more, and float upward in our heedlessness, singing Gratia Dei sum quod sum. (John Updike, Self-Consciousness: Memoirs, 1989, Ch. 6)

Glad you are finally adding something. It has been a bit of a dry spell I think.
Where did you gain the dark hair?
Glad to see you looking in once in a while, Wes. Actually, that isn't really me in the picture. It's one of my dear old Navy shipmates at a Halloween party in 1968.
Actually, I check your blog at least every other day. I trust that you do the same for mine. Cheers, WES
