Don't Forget Your Old Shipmate

I thought about my brother Anthony the other day.  He doesn't live nearby so we only see  each other about once a year.  We don't call each other as often as we should but we still  are brothers. Sometimes this old sea chantey reminds me of the two of us, not as sailors  but as having so many similar life experiences, especially as kids.  I'm not sure how "safe  and sound" life is now  but we made it!  Here are links to YouTube: This one has nice views of sailing ships and sailors.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9IxDhItxiSY This link has the lyrics to the song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wY1fUAPYH3M

It does have almond extract in it. Here's a recipe: Pistachio Ice Cream recipe | Epicurious.com From the website:

The Mouse

Here is a thirty thee minute audio recording of a short story I somehow found by accident. I did not intend to listen to it and was a bit impatient but once I heard part of it I could not stop. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f1/Shortstory024_01_themouse_rd.ogg

Au-Oh! Russia

Russian Video Even More Dangerous I pray it's all a show, that it never becomes anything more. Imagine what the world could do with all  the money spent on weapons. Sorry I posted this.  For some reason I just had to.  I want to avoid all politics. Hope no one is offended or too frightened.
