    Glad it found you well, Vinny. And yes, you almost didn't get the strong tobacco. It smelled so good I was going to just keep it in my closet! Hope you enjoy!

    When I first moved to Dull-Aware, my sister asked me: "What state is that in?" But then, she's a schoolteacher, so... Apparently, the First State does not warrant inclusion in the syllabus.

    Nevertheless, here we are. The state Capone made prosperous. In the list of state abbreviations, between CT, famous for New Haven, Waterbury, Danbury, and FL, famous for Miami, Tampa, and Dizzy World, you always find DE, famous for... Gumboro? Dagsboro? ... right, I know: Dover AFB (or as my schoolteacher sister would say: "What's that?")

    But I tell you what, when a veteran of the 82nd Airborne decided to bomb all fifty states, I'm betting he knew damn well what Dover AFB is all about. Morgue of heroes. I'm re-reading the jaw dropping history Eric sent me, third time, this morning, & I'm thinking: Far too many All Americans have passed right by me, up Route 1 to I-95 and home, and I no more acknowledged them than my kid sis Dull-Aware. I will ride across Rt 1 in just a few, en route to the office, with a different state of mind.

    All Americans: I thank you for your service.

    Route 1, Stanton, Delaware.

    I-95 beneath that overpass.

    Yup. Don't be fooled by the fact that he tries to disguise it by spelling it with two "a"s.

    I can probably dig up the addy to his parents place but he doesn't live there anymore. That's the dilemma, should his family have to suffer for his indescretions? LOL

    My sense is that if he is too much the coward to give it up then I'm okay with taking it out on his parents.

    Glad they made it there. Wasn't sure about the addy but it seems to have worked. Hope you find at least one you like.
