My legs have not seen daylight since I was on a basketball team in 1964 .Yes,I know that basketball is normally an indoor sports but my team scrimmaged against a team visiting NY from Minneapolis in the summer.
A book by an author that most have not heard of such as Lenquixote66.
A portable fan small enough to fit in your hand.
A notepad to write the names of people that you meet and want to keep. In touch with.
I just finished watching The Gentlemen on Netflix,2024 version starring Ray Winstone,Joely Richardson,Giancarlo Esposito and many other great actors.
It reminded me a bit of Godfather I.I highly recommend it.
After completing my education I worked non profit all my life and salary was never a factor.In 57 years of marriage my wife and I never haggled .We only bought two houses and lived in 2 apartments and accepted the prices because we believed they were affordable.
My youngest daughter and her husband were on an escorted land trip to Peru in 2019.It was a group of school teachers.They too were told they were expected to haggle.
I never visited Miami .In fact other than flying to Ft.Lauderdale to board a cruise and being on a cruise with a stop in Cocoa Beach I have never been to Fla.
Happy St.Patrick’s Day to all who celebrate.Many years ago I entered a poetry competition sponsored by Paddy’s Irish Whiskey.
I did not win a cash prize but I did win a certificate reading Leonard ……….Honorary Irish Poet.I also received a letter advising that if I brought the certificate to a bar that served Paddy’s whiskey I would receive a free beverage.
There was an Irish bar close to where I was working and I brought it in .I received a shot of whiskey.The certificate was then framed by me and I hung it on a wall in my office.
Later on it hung on a wall in the bar in my then home.Currently it is in my closet .
The only food I ever ate that had a horrible odor was pickled pigs feet.The grandmother of a childhood friend was visiting from Jamaica,BWI and I did not wish to offend her by not trying a food that she prepared.It tasted awful to me.
