Edgar,
We all have our vicissitudes.
Merle has raised a great Son, who is an Artist. And was not a child in the
upbringing who was not a child with special needs. I can't even guess at the
compassion, in my state, nor the love. I've never done anything as important
as that, and I take my hat off to both of them, mother and son.
And to you!, feeding the Fox. A relative of you'rn? ;-)
No, but in all seriousness. And I'm sure Merle sent her condolences to an
American who may have felt a fellow American with those who died and who were
maimed. I sent them back to Merle, also, because she's a citizen of our same
planet. And the lady bugs, foxes, pansies, and racoons attest. Far-flung
internet denizens in the desert, too! All Hail.
