Somehow I never, ever, thought of him a a "Mike". He was much to formal for that whilst being "jusk folks".

I didn't either. He seemed to be too refined for that. I never
thought of him being hoity-toity, more of a guy who had refined tastes.
I wish I'd had the chance to meet him in person before he passed.

I also consider myself extremely lucky from not dying from either of my heart attacks.

Nancy and I were nip & tuck and I enjoyed the challenge. I note that you've upped your game recently

I enjoyed watching you teo going at it in Scrabble. I admit to using
help to find words but i have been paying attention, like pulling off a 45-point word in my last turn today. LOL

I keep a Scrabble dictionary/glossary at hand. It helps.

Never give up. If you're going down take a few with you. Bv)=

Misery not only loves company, nowadays it insists on it!
