Good write Gold.
Wish I was still. But I\'m continuing learning to sing. It\'s a hopeless pursuit for me. I\'m off to lesson No. 7643 now!

A fine write, Andy.
Dressed for Thanksgiving almost forgot how. Spent so much time the past two years in genes.

Etiquette is shunned in today’s world. I recently attended a funeral and was ashamed of humanity to see majority of the people in jeans and T-shirts. What’s happening to us, for we have lost the glamour of dressing up for theatre, elegant restaurants, for formal occasions and …….
Thanks for the memories

Oh yes, well remembered. I used to wear a 3 piece suit and regularly complimented on my appearance by superiors (didn\'t go down well among some of my colleagues) and at one time when I worked for a newspaper, we had to have permission to remove our jacket in warm weather.
Lookig back on great times. I don\'t have a suit that fits me these says.

sadly, I don\'t share
your fond memories
of suits: as uniforms, Andy
\'I was the guy
loosening his tie
barely a few minutes
into my morning commute...\'
(still, a fun read
thanks for sharing
and hope you have
a wonderful weekend
my friend)

Yes all my working life I was booted and suited - Iin my late 70\'s I still take an interest in clothes and make sure I\'m dressed (but not formally) in accordance with modern styles. Straight leg trousers, informal shirts, tee shirts in the summer BUT never with graffiti, just got a Moncler jacket - costs an arm and a leg but looks so good, casual shoes (only leather for more formal occasions - light tan is my favourite). I wonder how it is with so many clothes shops on the high street that so many look so scruffy. I actually love shopping for clothes - don\'t know what this says about me.

Good write Gold.
Yes - I continued ranting. In that particular church online, a leader wore a hoodie and jeans - and not a young leader.
I\'m not against jeans and T-shirts in church. We don\'t have to wear Sunday best, but it looked scruffy. Part of their overall \'attitude\' where they just amble on, same old choruses, etc. What do I care really? I\'m not even there now!

I know those words are special for you and heartfelt.
I arose late today and the sun was shining. I felt great, beginning to realise I\'m slowly recovering from whatever it was i picked up hospital. Chemo free till next Jan/Feb I almost feel normal and I\'m loving it.
Life is life and it\'s wonderful.

Some puppets on a string we are. Talks of a new world order are heard sporadically, but nothing ever happens. Far too few control far too many.

So well stated
The struggle of proletariats and the rule of capitalists
The money kept dividing us
We wishEd to rise but who knew we were always deprived
They played with our mind
And alas we never realised
What did the heart want inside
A powerful depiction of socio-economic state of world

If the measure of success is monetary/possessive wealth, and achievement by whatever means, then the debate becomes redundant.
Show me a person of humble means who understands and lives as one with nature and I will surely follow.

It\'s those \'they\' who are greedy - whoever they are. They must have names. They can\'t just be faceless or anonymous.
Did \'they\' say to me \'Don\'t turn up in 1066\'? But I did!
