Posted by George Hoerner on 01/22/12 at 08:26 PM I fear we can never plug all te wholes m'lady. They are part of a life we struggle to make what we wish it would be and life has a way of throwing reality up at us we least expect it. You have a way with words that I really enjoy and I feel the fear in them. Re-running the reel has never worked for me. One must 'stay the course' or try to change it and sometimes that is impossible to do. I have one advantage over you. My reel has run about as long as I could expect it to and it will be time sooner than I wish for a different projectionist to take over. |
