It has been said that each person is a very small part of all of his ancestors combined. What a mixed up bunch of people I have sprouted from. To my German, Scottish, Irish, English, and French cousins around the world; I am really pleased to spend a we bit of electronic time with you each day. The world is really a very small place indeed. I think from time to time about those brave ancestors who decided to come to America long ago, that I might be free to worship, or vote, or to speak my mind. So tonight I hoist my glass to the Sinclairs of Scotland, the Pfaffenbergs of Rhineland, The Jordans of Ireland, the Rathbones of England, The Beals of France, and all of their offspring. A Very Happy Hogmanay to you all. And an extra drink to Dr. Tim. Donald Sinclair (Indianapolis) |
