Barkeep, I'll take 2 fingers of whiskey in a glass over ice, please.
Don't mind me sitting under the lightening rod, just waiting for the jolt from someone complaining we made too damned much fuss over him.

The one eyed man in the kingdom of the blind wasn't king, he was stoned for seeing light.
More likely grumbling about the fuss being made ... we told him 3 years ago, "We are giving you an 80th birthday party - so just hold still and put up with it! You only have to put up it for zero-year birthday, okay?" We figure this falls under the same category.
The dogs of his neighborhood will certainly miss him, and his pocket with cookies!

The dogs of his neighborhood?
What about the dogs of the rest stops and various and sundry other places? After all, if you don't use the doggy cookies, they go bad!

My dad was a man of few words and fewer expressions. Unless you knew him well or stayed around for an hour or two for him give an opinion, you really had to be patient to find out what he thought about anything.
A few years after he passed, my mom and I were talking about his birthday and his apparent indifference about the whole deal. I asked my mom if she knew how he felt about his B-days and she said, "Oh he loved his birthdays, He loved the fact that people gave him presents!"

After he passed, Ma finally got up the gumption to start going thru his things and we got into a closet where he kept his 'guy stuff'. I found three of my pocket knifes that I had set down while working on thing and he swooped in to pick them up. The other thing that was horrifying and hilarious was a Hickory Farms gift package that was YEARS old. I guess he put it up on a shelf and forgot about it....It was mummified beyond belief and we tried to remember what year it was given to him and the closest date we got was sometime during the late 20th century?!
Our Dad was a great storyteller, and we all have many stories we will pass along to future generations.
Now that it is the season, cider, please!

Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all -
Together we stand
Divided we fall.
I laugh, therefore? I am.
