Then I have lived! Takes quite a soaking too.
And I agree with you. Like Ken in 1967, I too in 1959 was the program.
Well, the program was a little more such as gathering wood, building a fire
in the rain under 4 outstretched ponchos held over you because raw bacon
isn't very good. Gathering more wood so the crew behind yours would get a hot
shower and on and on and on.
Pholks, I'm not condeming today's program, but I do have a suggestion. It's
not an "either the program or the other stuffs" type thing, but both. Throw
in some of the old fashioned stuff and see how they devour it. Do the
program too. What you get is the best of both worlds.
Walk to the beat of a different drummer. Stop and smell the roses or the
rocks or the sticks or whatever.
