what if?

''BROTHER abe you surely don't mean to allow that child to go out on such a bitter day as this?" "why not said the doctor, if a delicate invalid like yourself can bear it, surely a hardy girl can especially if she is dressed for the cold weather"'"..."but you have no idea how sharp the wind is doctor, i am chilled to the very marrow of my bones, but wear crape and silk instead of fur and flannel.'' ''IT WILL BE THE DEATH OF YOU'"'....."well i warn you, you are trifling with the girl's health and she had made so much iMprovement".."she could be blessed if we just would occassionally ride out into the darkness of the night and look at the sky and ponder our place in the world of hope'"'.."I HOPE SHE DOES and will not drop away at the first serious attack as her poor mother did''..."I'LL Risk it answered the doctor" "mark my words, you will repent of it"....the doctor had a failing of being told what to do....the funeral was not elaborite, just the minister, zeb, abe and I

That doctor ought to be jailed for child abuse and throw away the key!
Same goes for parents who let their kids ride the trails on the two-three-four wheelers. The law won't let them on the highway, parents should be liable for letting them wherever they can hurt themselves. Again, arrest them and throw away the keys.

I just bought a book of Abraham Lincoln's speeches at the bookstore for TF for Christmas. It only cost me $ 1.99.

You are a true mystery to me Putz. But a fun mystery.
