Looking in the Rear View Mirror

The title tells much about what this book is all about. Being 70 and a senior citizen made me stop and think, "How did this happen so fast?" With encouragement from my wife Gale, I decided that it was time to put down on paper the off-beat way I've looked at things, from child raising to the social scene. I've always had something to say and usually in a humorous or what some call a smart-ass way. Mainly, I wrote this for my offspring, to show them what "papa" was like and what our country was like when I was a boy back in the 30s and 40s. The things that were not around that they take for granted now. Also some things that were around then that I wish they could have experienced. Then there are some things that never change. I do know they would all agree after reading this book, "He just had to have the last word, didn't he!"
