I am certain, though, that you could express these thoughts as well or better.<br /><br />John, thank you for allowing me to post in your place. You did a superb job of getting it ready.

So I will post it here:<br />My thanks to John, my good friend and even better writer, for yielding his slot. It is much appreciated.Herschel Cozinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06097703750150309319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119105822589181967.post-41679121005251457402014-06-21T10:53:59.102-04:002014-06-21T10:53:59.102-04:00Herschel -- Great post.

I once heard what I consider to be good advice, on this subject: If you CAN stop writing, you probably SHOULD stop writing.John Floydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04001712728130488485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119105822589181967.post-46359655751552103092014-06-21T07:23:52.115-04:002014-06-21T07:23:52.115-04:00It's amazing how a man I never met can express...It's amazing how a man I never met can express exactly how I feel, yet you have.
