Will you Still ........

"When I'm Sixty Four"

When I get older losing my hair
Many years from now
Will you still be sending me a valentine
Birthday greetings, bottle of wine?
If I'd been out till quarter to three
Would you lock the door?
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four?

Yepper , made it.  Siri said " I didn't get you anything " thats OK , girl. M would just be jealous anyway

Is there a song ' When I'm 65 or 66 or 67 - turns out that I may need one of those

For a guy who never thought that he'd see 13 ( Cuban missile crisis )

I believed all that doomsday clock business

Really , the clock was at 11:59:4 something

 Hey ,now I get to die from nuclear waste in the soil not in a bomb... jiggers fellas

I'm trying to imagine being out to quarter to 3 , as per the song

I'd be a total wreck 

Used to able to do it , now 11: 30 sounds late

BTW - Drove by Grimsby , 2x , to and from Ft Erie.. Never noticed before

To-day, need to get some sand to refill the front corner sink hole , TG it hasn't settled too much 

Hopefully , the by-pass water spout thingy did the trick

On gambling.

Al ,  the regular at the Allegany craps table. He remembers , the first days of the casino , ten years ago. in fact , Tues was get a commemorative watch day ( you had to earn game points during the day ) I didn't make it. At first , I was disappointed. Then Al said  ' How much do you bet ? '

I said " the min. "

Al said , maybe that not enough to get points

Then I thought ... TG , I don't get a watch

The maxim at the craps table is ' if you win a thousand , you could lose a thousand  '

No ,thank you

I'm lose.... 60 , win 60 or 64 as the case , may be

So , overall at the craps table , 6 visits , up 80 dollars

And it should have been , up 120

I missed a run , I couldn't decide where to jump in , when I missed the ' come '

or the first bet.

Back to Al , the dice man

Nice fellow and he takes notes

no kidding.. Al writes down the # s as their thrown

He mentioned that I shot very well Tuesday and he had the sequences that I threw

He asked , ' do you set up the dice before throwing ? '

Me :Yes

   Al : How ?

  Me :4 s up

           Al :anything else

Me :No

Al nodded his head and wrote it down

BTW , Al is a relly nice guy  You meet all kinds at the table

Some dudes give the impression that the dice ' owe you something '

Or to quote Sara McLaughlin  ' always waiting , for the break that will make it OK '

Oops ! those lyrics aren't mine at the top.  The authors , were the Beatles

Keep your powder dry ! Have a good'un
