So Long, It’s Been Good to Know Ya
After 25 years of blogging, it’s time to say goodbye. In August I turned 97 and keeping the blog fresh and varied is getting a bit difficult for me.
Many thanks to all my readers, old and new. Running this blog for a quarter of a century has been a great joy. I have had fun, hopefully I have taught, and I too have learned. I appreciate all my Good Shit fans and thank you to all who have supported me over the years.
It’s been a great ride, so long it’s been good to know ya. Be of good cheer.
