you would have fit very well with a guy I knew years ago.
He worked on the four sixes ranch some of you may know it .Story goes it was won in a poker game with 4 sixes
Anyway this guy was as cowboy as you could get and had worked on that ranch for years
In his spare time he would listen to music and had a small rope that he constantly twirled and roped his foot
One day I ask him why do you listen to all the different kinds of music (even opera ) as he was so country it was pitiful.
With that slow long drawal he says " Doc you gotta have culture and to get culture you gotta listen to all types of music ." He was an amazing person to talk to

I feel the same way about travel. You don't know much about places and people unless you experience them. Mark Twain said, "Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness."

{In a thick Irish accent} "Don't do it laddy; you've got too much to live for!"

That reminds me of a great Irish drinking song (wait...aren't all Irish songs drinking songs?):

"Here's a health to y'all ploughboys wherever you may be
That likes to have a bonnie lass a sitting on his knee
With a jug of good strong porter you'll whistle and you'll sing
For a ploughboy is as happy as a prince or a king."



I'll have a pint.
