I am sick as a pup. Lungs again, blast them! Why can’t they do as they are supposed to do and allow proper breathing?
Is it a conspiracy, an assault by the body upon the spirit? If so then it is rebellion pure and simple. Stupid lungs! If their revolt is successful then they themselves will perish.
Or is it in the natural state of affairs when an adult is surrounded at all times and everywhere by hordes of squealing adolescents?
No doubt some virus has taken up in those lungs, there in the darkness to be fruitful and multiply. No doubt that my ancient body is even now marshalling up those little machines that God in His mercy has placed in the pinnacle of His creation—armies and legions and hosts of anti-bodies and white blood cells.
This is war. And I will win—as I have always won. As I always will win—until the last battle. Then it will be a matter of putting my affairs in order to prepare to see the face of the Carpenter.
But not yet. Not yet.

No, if being around ‘squealing adolecents’ would do anything, it would strenthen the body like nothing like what kids can strengthen. And thank you for the information about the blog.
On my previous post I forgot to proofread my comment, so forgive me for my atrocious spelling and or grammar.
I apologize for my multiple postings, things just keep popping up into my mind.
Scipio, I tried to locate the free wordpress hosting with Yahoo, but all I can find seems to require a payment method, so if it’s not to much trouble could you see if it’s just me?
that’s right mr. austin you win that war!
Dear Locke: You go right ahead and post as much as you want!
It seems that WordPress is only offered free if you already host at Yahoo. Oops!
Being around squealing adolescents does indeed strengthen the spirit. It also humbles it—a very good thing in my case.
I have had very good luck with Yahoo. I especially like their regular ‘snapshots’ of my domain so that if something goes haywire Yahoo has a record going back several weeks of everything placed under my domain.
I might go ahead and pay the lowest amount for web hosting thru Yahoo. Thanks! By the way, has anyone ever told you that you were their favorite teacher? If not, let me be the first.
Dear Locke: Thank you kindly! To some students I am the most popular teacher in the universe. To others I am the teacher from Hell. I accept both titles with pride.
Be strong, and fight to the death!
Dear Claire: You should be a general.
um, your dieing?
Dear Emily: Nope. But I was as sick as a dog. Now healed, I am as youthful as a pup!
