All I am asking you is what you meant by the above comment.

Nothing macho, just a simple answer will do.
The answer is "Google is your friend" you lazy bastard. Until when did your mother spoon-fed you?

Mom (celebrates her 92nd birthday next month) called last night to chat family and world news, exchange a few laughs and confirm my wellbeing... and to report a clean bill of health this past week from both her eye doctor and general physician.

Either a latest book or two by one of her favorite novelists, gift certificate for her

hair salon, flowers or just a nice card. She always fusses if or when I dote on her.

Average life expectancy in the US is 76, she can't have long now regardless.

This cheerful lady/durable soul has always premised one day at a time with quality

since a child. The gratitude of her entire family for her sacrifices is immeasurable.

Good one, Poet Lariat. Wonder if Charley's observation of cyberspace chess site member/public forum posters may be...

an unlikely global village family that, every now and again, can eat humble pie or crow and be nourished by the meal.

Goodness knows we could all use a timely boost to our spirits. Please make our day. Thanks.

Today me and the mrs went for an impromptu day out to the seaside, despite weather forecast of 'possible occasional light showers'. Halfway there, things looked glum - leaden skies, and the occasional light showers seemed to have coalesced into one rather large and jolly persistent shower. Consequently we didn't stop at our first choice destination, nor the second, nor the third, but carried on driving along the coast until, on a whim, we headed for sunny Borth. On arrival, the clouds broke up and it sunned down on us like a good 'un, while at the same time keeping up a nice fresh on-shore breeze. We bought chips from the first chippy we saw, and they were spectacularly good, so we shared 'em with a number of ravenous gulls and a couple of crows as we wandered up to Ynyslas and back. Couldn't have chosen better weather, company or food - one o' them near-perfect days.

Nice... very nice. Thanks for turning up the wattage of the thread.
