That dude was cool. That's the kind of life I want to have. Not necessarily the type of success and all; I don't know shit about electricity. But to live a good long life, surrounded by loving family and friends, never get cranky and keeping a sense of humor. I hope to have grandkids to share my stories with.

Old people can be cool. I want to be one of them.

Thanks for sharing bowmore. May we all carry a bit of Henry in us forever.

Seriously, I enjoyed that immensely. Great story. Almost the perfect corralary to Slappy's UU.

I hope when I go that people remember me as bowmore remembers that guy.

I'm lazy and I've been busy, which means that I've only got around to reading your words now, Mr. Bowmore.

Thank you for taking the time to write that for us.

Or for you.

It's appreciated.

bowmore....That's a beautiful fucking story. Every once in a while, I see something that makes me stop and say "Goddamn that makes PROUD to be human!". Thanks for the moment, old boy...they're getting fewer and further between.
