Hi Frank. You've got me beat, I wasn't able to lead your mainstream life, and in ways I envy you. I don't envy your sitting in an office as a lower management guy following the rules of a large institution day in and day out, year in and year out but I do think you got the best of in in the byproducts that stability enabled you to acquire. (BTW, you're the guy who said your family was off-limits on the HZ, not a subject to be brought up. That was after I said I felt sorry for your kids. And I've never mentioned them again. You remind me of Palin, using your family when it suits you.)

As for Thanksgiving, I've turned down a number in invitations in order to take a nap that afternoon and work at the Hospice that evening. While I'm aware you sneer at my work at the Hospice, I think we'll both have a holiday we find rewarding.

And I think I am a big dog in some ways, at least compared to some people. You, for instance. I don't know that's anything to be proud of. It's just a skill set you don't have because you were learning useful things when some of us were surviving in maybe more challenging environments. And as I would be at a disadvantage in your world, you don't do well in mine. Honestly, I wouldn't even try if I were you. There's no need.

Enjoy your holiday.
