Cracker:
My friend, and I do consider you my friend, I can tell by your daddy's age that you are no "snot nosed kid". My dad was born in 1901 and passed away at the age of 76, so I have out lived him. I did enter the ninth grade but I found that I knew more than the teachers did so I quit, ran away from home, joined the MARINE CORPS at the age of 15, got turned away when they contacted my parents. Did join when I was 17 though. (Boy that was a long time ago)I have raised three kids, helped raise six grand kids, and am helping raise two greatgrandkids. Not bad for an old "FART". <
You have a wonderful day and the very best to you and yours.
