Makes me think about the late W.C. Fields- my all-time favorite comedian and "raccoon-tuner"-- when approached by a fellow actor, who was asking Fields for a loan- his pithy reply was:"Aaaah yees, a loan, you said. I'd like to oblige you, but un-four-tune-at-lee, all my funds are tied up in cash at the present.
True story- when on the vaudeville circuit before he broke into Hollywood, he would often open a bank account in the small town on the old Orpheum circuit- with fictional names- ie: "Ransom J. Prufrock, Snidley B. Whiplash, Algonquinne Puttersome, etc. Who knows how many of those bank accounts survived unclaimed, after his death in 1945.
Taking stock in light of this new situation- Mae and I own our house free and clear, no mortgage payments since 1979- no credit card debt, never ever- and we own three older but well maintained vehicles free and clear--money in the bank--insured up to 100K (we are about half-way there) and no plans to buy any more guns of any type-thank you very much.
Besides our concerns about semi-guru Murph Da Surf-- wonder how: Sreve Barnett, Robin Hollow, Puglisi's and other if that ilk are faring with high-end gun deals?? RWTF
