    I also do not know if they still put something in the cranium to protect the brain, but maybe they use different materials now. Alot has changed since the 50s'.

    Oh, man, how wonderful that you traced him, and that he was saved by a mule.

    3 has always been my favorite number, but until I grew up I didn't know why (the trinity).

    Another store I went it I'll never forget. The man behind the counter that waited on me before school every day had a giant indentation in his head, right in the center of his forehead. He told me he got shot in WWII so bad right there, and they put a metal plate in his head, but he was truly fine! Haven't thought of that since the sixties.

    I remember that too, and something called Bonomo Turkish Taffy that would crack your teeth!

    I'm buying educational and mystery DVDs that don't have any cursing and filth on them. There's zillions I haven't seen, and they are so good. Also, I can watch when I feel like it after work.

    My brother and I would buy an ice cream cone each for I think 10 Cents - they're probably ten dollars now! Anyway, he would always order a green pistachio ice cream and I would always get a pink strawberry one with a sugar cone. Funny, how our child memories are imprinted in our brains. They had candies like fake lipstick that you ate, fake little wax bottles that you drank liquid out of, and licorice black records with red candy dots in it that you ate!

    Confirmation that taking my Comcast equipment back and discontinuing cable was a wise move I should have done ages ago.

    All kidding aside, you will be very blessed for sheltering them, and I know your kindness does not evade your wife's affection for you. If someone is kind to someone or thing I'm fond of, it is a double good thing.
