I don't know if you put the dog down or not.

Years, decades ago when I was stationed in Germany, during the time when I lived in the barracks before moving out and downtown Mannheim on my own, was another GI I drank many beers with many nights lived in the barracks too. His name was Bob. So one Friday my barracks roomate says to me, "Hey, Greg and the guys are coming over and we're going out for beers, wanna come with?". I didn't know who Greg was and asked who's Greg. My roomate says that I know who Greg is, been out drinking beer with him and the fellas many times. I didn't know who Greg was. After awhile there's a knock at the door, I open it, its Bob, so I say "Hey Bob, come on it", and he does. My roomate looks at him and says, "I thought your name was Greg", to which Bob confirmed that it was Greg. For the better part of a year, I had been drinking beer with the guy and calling him Bob to his face, so I ask, "Wait a minute Bob, how can your name be Greg if its Bob", to which he replied, "No Mark, my name's Greg, I just knew who you were talking to whenever you yelled or said Bob".

From that day, embarrassment forward, I never correct anyome on my name more than once. If they call me Bob or Frank or whatever, so long as they're not bad mouthing me when they do it, and I know who they're talking to or about, what's in a name?

Today's Featured Article - Good As New - by Bill Goodwin. In the summer of 1995, my father, Russ Goodwin, and I acquired the 1945 Farmall B that my grandfather used as an overseer on a farm in Waynesboro, Georgia. After my grandfather’s death in 1955, J.P. Rollins, son of the landowner, used the tractor. In the winter 1985, while in his possession the engine block cracked and was unrepairable. He had told my father ... [Read Article]
