The Grizzwells by Bill Schorr for February 28, 2024

“May you live as long as you want and never want as long as you live”

“May the lilt of Irish laughter

Lighten every load.

May the mist of Irish magic

Shorten every road…

And may all your friends remember

All the favours you are owed!”

May you have the hindsight to know where you’ve been,

The foresight to know where you are going,

And the insight to know when you have gone too far.”

“May those who love you love you,

And those who don’t love you,

May God turn their hearts.

And if he doesn’t turn their hearts,

May he turn their ankles so you’ll know them by their limping”.

“St Patrick was a gentleman,

Who through strategy and stealth,

Drove all the snakes from Ireland,

Here’s a toasting to his health.

But not too many toastings

Lest you lose yourself and then

Forget the good saint Patrick

And see all those snakes again“

“I will not waste my life by trying to prolong it.” – Jack London

I’m headed that way, except for the bear facts.

Is Pierpoint looking to see if Gunther has been listed under a date in the near future…?

i’d like to not be remembered for the things folks’ll likely remember me for…
