Mornin' Cuzzies, So, thingees justa hummin' right along here.....the weather is hotter than the hinges of hell, but I understand that's going everywhere. I hear a peacock down below.....the neighborhood has a collection of them whom we are all friends with.... Speaking of genealogy, I'll have to give you a rundown of Ole Buckley's since it's right interesting. He and Wm F. Buckley, Jr., founder of the National Review, shared the same grandfather, a definite Irishman. Ole Buckley always accused me of being a dour Brit w/ no sense of humor and I would return w/ calling him a "late comer" since his family showed up abt. 1870. Most of mine were in America in the 1600's. And, you think that bothered him? Naaawww..... Seems that Grandpa's father, a Catholic, left Ireland over religious freedom and came to Canada. As the grandfather grew up, he ended up in South Texas, due to health reasons so I am told, and became the first *non-gun toten* Sheriff of Duval County, famous for the the first LBJ election and the famous Box 13 incident. More later.....and have a good one! Buckette
