On days like today I remember these words from my paternal grandma

[malaise]

Before you speak/write an angry word count ten
If still you angry be, count again.

Then I ignore granny and follow Twain😀
When angry, count to four; when very angry, swear.😀
Eff them.

Angry is mild.

3. I rely on a lot of Mark Twain. A bit of an aside, Hal Holbrook has a new production of Twain starring

wait for it....



John Boy Walton (Richard Thomas)... ! I guess it is touring around the country, but I heard about it too late to see it in Denver. The ads looked pretty good, though.

4. That should be great

6. I saw some footage of Richard Thomas doing Mark Twain and he's really good

It took me a bit of time to sort out it was a Hal Holbrook production.

I caught Hal Holbrook doing it in the late seventies. Damn that was almost fifty years ago!

5. My favorite advice is, if someone makes you angry, walk a mile in their shoes.

You'll be a mile away and you'll have their shoes.

7. LOL
