Bank Robber

So recently I have had the pleasure of enjoying a couple of cold ones at a good old-fashioned spot in Adam's neighborhood. Nothing new, except that I have chatted with a gentleman about watches and boating a few times. Adam knows him better than I do, but the man is funny and gregarious. Adam just sent this over:

Jeebus Sakes Alive!!!! Our buddy's gotten himself into a bit of a scrape there, hasn't he?

I have met other interesting people at that friendly spot over the years.

Yesterday we stopped into the Columbus day festivities with Johnathan, a desendent of both Aaron Burr (last evening there was a little gun play but not very much. Honest!) and Thomas Hooker. Hooker Brews are excellent. I have known J for years and each time I see him I castigate myself for not spending more time with him as it denies me the pleasure of his conversation and company. Bport and Bethel have connections from way back.

Well I started this post with the notion to strive to be a more interesting person, but duels and bank robbing are already taken and I have a high regard for originality, so the thinking cap is going on...life is ticking by I need to get on with it and carpe the darned diem.
