'Maintain Our Memories'

As someone who also wastes a lot of time on the Web, I congratulate you on your efforts. At least you are doing something useful (written in case your wife really does read this blog).
ReplyDeleteThe Internet can be compared to the results of an extensive Halloween trek, when the kids appear unable to choose from all the candy they received – I keep going from one subject to another on this 'patente à gosses', getting lost in one interesting page after another.
How appropriate a time of year to be writing to a guy whose wife might suggest he spends too much time with the deceased – they, at least, lay there on your site, digitally and silently for eternity, without complaint.
What an interesting hobby you have developed.
Keep on remembering and take care!
