On aging

In my junior year of college while in London a year, I would go to the campus restaurant for lunch, sometimes with a next-door neighbor friend or sometimes local friendly acquaintances.

At one lunch we started talking about pop music, and I said I liked the English pop group Dire Straits. It was only the early 1990s. The cute English woman across the lunch table teasingly called the pop group “oldies.” I guess she must have been only 19.

I am listening now to Dire Straits. I think they were a very good pop band. and “Romeo and Juliet” is a great song.

“Smirch” by yours truly

In a bit of of a lurch.

Please don’t smirch.

It can hurt(ch ya).

Parents say I should I go to Church, ya.
