A lighthearted collection of stories stemming from a life on Earth spanning two centuries. Residue from rubbing shoulders with luminaries and peons alike.Eulogies, essays, songs, poems, and even a very fine recipe for corn casserole stolen directly from the kitchen of our good friend, Evelyn Dick. A shamelessly self-promoting tome of epic proportions, considering my normal conveyance - a lousy two-page letter sent at Christmas time every year, without fail. PLEASE BUY THIS BOOK! We need to buy a beamer before the brother-in-law gets one.Yeah, that's shallow, but hey, isn't that . CAPITALISM at its best!
