Nice thread, JOAT.
In the book "Tuesdays with Morrie" a young man meets regularly with a former mentor of his who is dying. At one point he asks Morrie whether he misses being able to do many of the old things. Morrie replies that he doesn't, because he has done so much and remembers it well. The memories are important, of course, but the doing of the old things the first time makes for a rich life. This is one very big reason why I am a woodworker: the memories have substance. Bob "T." wrote in message ... My mother sent me this a few days back.
