    2. Sure enjoyed your letter, Bobby...I just got kinda tired of not seeing any action on the list so decided to stir some up...Y'all come on now, and liven this list up a little! It's cool right now but pretty soon all that hot muggy weather will be back on us and you can set in the air condioned cool and share memories of days gone by..... Kids growing up now days are never going to have the quality of memories that WE do...How can getting a new computer compare with a memory of spending a week at Mammy and Papa's farm back in the day ? Hard times ? Yes, we had plenty of them...but it made us who we are today.......The next generation in my family are just about all riddled with health problems...Just didn't get the upbringing on 'organically' grown vegetables and meat grown with no antibiotics or force feeding we did...By the time they came along we had all moved to Chicago to get work and they had to eat ' brought on' food....Too much of the food we get now is shipped in from foreign countries where this country sells pesticides, etc. that are outlawed here in the states....SO stupid ! We're paying the price....Jeannie T ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~...
