FIRST PERSON SINGULAR
Thanks but …. Hi Mark. If you ever come back to this part of Hemingway's world, I will be glad to meet. I have 7 brothers and sisters, and many friends who email me, and work HARD for 9 hours a day/ 5days a week, and have a year old puppy that needs a lot of my time and energy. Your Musings are not going to ever get read, so please stop sending so I don't feel guilty for not reading, LH, Ketchum, ID
