He sounds like a wonderful, self-sacrificing person. <BR/><BR/>When I first saw that picture at the top I thought Andy Griffith might be your dad and you had just kept it a secret all this time. <BR/><BR/>My father (stepdad) doesn't have a southern accent, but when I was a teenager my friends would call just hoping he would answer the phone so they could hear him say, "Yellow". I have no idea what two words he was trying to combine there, but I always wanted to say, "No, green!"<BR/><BR/>P.S. Did I mention that you did extremely well writing this post?
