Today is the first day of the rest of my life, and it is time to set some new goals. Number one on the list is to create a memorial for my second wife Peggy. It is time that the world learns about how beautiful she was. I can’t promise that it will be today, or tomorrow, but it will take place this winter.
Second on my list is to finish the workshop of my dreams.
Third is to design a new Intarsia pattern and to execute the work for display.
Fourth is to fill my garden with Whirligigs all happily spinning away in unison.
Fifth is to retire from retirement from the Frankfort Lions Club
Sixth is to love my family as much as I can.
Seventh is to beat the squirrel
Eighth is to blow up the Apple facility responsible for scrambling the contents of my iMac with their endless need for passwords and updates trying to make my desktop into an iPhone
Lastly, eight goals as lofty as those listed are enough for any man my age.

The most famous artist for this type of saucy postcards wasDonald McGill.
He was nearly 80 years old when he was put on trial (1954) under the Obscene Publications Act,found guilty and fined. Today the postcards are worth a fortune.
I recall scanning postcard racks while on vacation and buying several of these to send to friends.
