Hi G Cyndy,

Something very funny, I was just having a gin and tonic when I got your email and you said could I send you some of my genes and my reader pronounces it like gin. So I had to go back and spell it out to make sure that you had in fact said gene.
Anyway youngster, keep plugging along and some day you'll catch up with me.
Well, that was a bunch of nonsense, but nonsense and humor keep us going and helps to keep us young.

Way to go, Bud!! You make me feel young!! I'm only 72. I keep hoping I'll have time to read all the books I want to. Can you send me some of your genes?
