I do very much like hearing of your dreams and hopes for you sons. As I'm writing, I'm listening to my 16 year old playing Rachmaninoff on the piano in the background and you reminded me that I should ask him if he'd finished his calculus homework. "Yes dad, hours ago, gees." I used to play Rachmaninoff while my dad read too... the cycle.. it creeps on... and on... our legacy and our hope.

All in all, I don't care if the message is a somber one as long as it's based on reality. What's the use building a future on false notions. Thanks for a shot of reality.

Have a good week my friend.
