Bill, Lobby & Max, An earlier Southern version of this tale of woe, so 'beloved' by ungrateful offspring when told in guilt producing tones while packing our golf bags in the BMW was.... after milking the cow, gathering eggs and feeding up, we swept the yard, churned the butter, cleaned lamp chimneys & trimmed the wicks. After eating breakfast, which we were _very lucky to get, we did the dishes before chopping and toting the wood in. Then we brushed off brother's patched hand me down overalls and walked barefoot to school, trying to keep the homework from rubbing off our slate boards. All this before sun-up, of course. :( blah :( blah :( blah :( blah
The poorly received message is still the same tho the mournful lament has probably been updated to something about having had to drive to school in second hand cars with monaural bass boomers and use out-dated gigabyte computers and watch old DVDs. Then endure silly courses like history & math, even worse, shop (did I mention those sleeve bearing lathes?) and phys. ed. Time trudges on. Arch, COC, 1st.
Fortiter,
