For my kids and grand children, please excuse the sentiments, but here is the straight poop from the old man.  I have decided to share, whether it is worthwhile or not, my thoughts and feelings on various issues, my recollections of past events and, hopefully helpful opinions on current and past history.  Our ancestors( family in the past) had a n amazing wisdom that we have strayed from to a greater or lesser degree and are paying the price of our  mistakes.  This the theme of my “sharing”.  A great deal is to follow, if I live long enough.
