So are you looking forward to those Pearly Gates of wonderment? I am, but just not in the near future! Neither are you looking for that in the near future are you Jackson? I'm sure you have 20 more years to go! You'd be surprised, you really could go another 20 my friend! As you are in tip top shape, rocking away beautifully! And producing such marvelous limericks everyday! Like this incredible write here, this one I really enjoyed this morning! What a magnificent piece, Great Work!!
