Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
-- Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 5

QUESTION OF THE WEEK...07-01-2024
What do you admire most about your mother and father?
My parents have been gone for many years, but my mom was filled with love. My dad was a hard worker. My childhood was not something I would want to relive. My mom made is almost okay.
My father died just over 50 years ago. He was the most ethical person I ever knew. And he never shaded the truth. My mother's been gone for 20 years. She was a force of nature, quick to smile and laugh, but not without her moments of anger. And her anger could shake the ground. They were good people. They were always loving and supportive, even when I became a radio personality, rather than a stockbroker!
