If anyone wonders, Jack has been one of my favorite people for years. What he does point out is what I am trying to do. I ask more questions than I give answers. That is because I often don't know what my opinion is going to be until I listen to you. You give me enough information and outlooks that help me to decide. That is often what lawyers do. They were going to hire a new President for the University. They brought in a mathematician and asked him what 2 plus 2 was? He said: "There is a negative two, the base power of two, the square root of two........." So they thanked him a brought in a philosopher. The asked him, how much is two plus two? He said, " There is the Ontiological two, the Cosmological two and the Teleological two...." so they thanked him and send him on his way. They then brought in a lawyer and said, "How much is two plus two?' He pulled down the shades, locked the door, looked at them and said: "How much do you want it to be?" I was recently told by someone I respect that they have figured out my agenda. Well, let me tell you, I have no agenda. I want to show a few good dogs, I want to see some fantastic dogs at the National. I want to thank the board members. I want the club to survive. I want to pay my bills. I want us to think about what we do, and to enjoy ourselves. I want to see a few more sunrises, enjoy another day in the rain, and listen to the sound of a train whistle in the distance. I want to listen to Patsy Cline since I'm Sorry, and feel the sun on my back. And I want a few more years to enjoy my friends.
