his daughter states
"he just needs a little more help getting on top of the plane now"
what does tom lackey know
that i don't know?

Sally -- don't neglect that we have started a new poetry contest!
thanks for the heads-up kirby
i'll see what i can come up with
though i think i will be at
a disadvantage given
the wimpiness of southern california winters
...but i will be travelling to maine
next weekend to visit my mom
and my sister
so maybe i'll get some inspiration there
Sally, you have until the 18th.
