Posted by Quentin S Clingerman on 07/29/03 at 12:41 AM A great tribute. I think Bob Hope would have especially liked that last line! Very clever and true. Thank you for saying it for us David. |
Posted by JD Clay on 07/29/03 at 05:06 AM Anything clever here would be to upstage a master. Your fitting verse pays homage to a legend. One word left: Peace... |
