Just in case anyone was wondering, I don't have any romantic relationships going on. I have a couple of young lady friends, and I'm old enough to be their grandfather.

I don't understand the connections, but I value them greatly. It is so nice to have smart young women as friends, willing to take time out of their schedules to spend time with OldManJim.

Elizabeth said something offhand, that she respects my history and knowledge, or something to that effect. I get that, I do have both.

Her dad has Parkinsons and it's affecting him pretty bad. He was a school teacher for decades around here, and my neighbor Daniel has high regards for the man, taught his boys!

Just thought I would clarify things...
