Another Spring, Another Masters!

You may be better off with a yellow jumpsuit and a trash stabber . . .

Did that on my Wedding Day...but that's another story.

You know...I just re-read that post and now can see where others may have gotten totally the wrong idea. Not so!

On my Wedding Day, I was literally stabbing trash (in uniform at age 20, 5 a.m., June 7, 1967, on Mountain Home Air Force Base in Mountain Home, Idaho). I was wearing a hooded parka (not a yellow jumpsuit), but I was definitely stabbing trash. I shouldn't have been there -- Alan Sopinski had the duty but got sick...ah, to heck with it, it's a neat story, but not here. The good news is that, 39 years later, these two 'kids' -- three children and four grandchildren later -- are still together.

I was dealt a great hand.

Trash stabber and all.

Lynn,

There is no way that anyone should ever think otherwise. You are far too nice a man for folks to consider that you would make such an ingracious implication.
