I could have sworn he was closer to the century mark..
Well, he certainly makes it sound like he was round for the invention of dirt.
Hope you had a great day Fred!!Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

Hi Guys,
thanks for noticing. My wife arranged a backyard BBQ, the weather cooperated and the party wound down about sunset.
My wife also bought me a generic replacement speedo for my BSA.
My son, being only engaged, said "That won't work"
Myself, being more experienced, said "Thenk you my love, that's just what I needed, I will make it work"
And not for the original dirt, no.
For the improved modern dirt, maybe.Fred Hill, S'toon
