Jack’s Winning Words 5/19/20
 “Good morning America, how are you?”  (Steve Goodman)  This line is from Goodman’s song, The City of New Orleans.  BTW, how are you this morning?  Since over 500 people receive WWs there are sure to be a variety of responses.  With unemployment, the virus, anxiety and depression, things aren’t good for “millions.”  By chance I came across Steve’s version of “Blue Skies.”  Feeling blue?  Need a picker-upper?  Listen to Blue Skies! ;-)  Jack     

FROM EMT MF:  Five hundred is an impressive number Jack, you continue to do great work.  We are well in Clarkston, doing our best thru this pandemic new lifestyle.  Staying busy with projects around the house and lots of walking.  We’ve started relaxing quarantine rules around the grandkids on Mother’s Day, visiting with them 3 times last week, they love to ride bikes from their house to ours, have pretty much stayed home since mid March.  Today, league golf starts,” hooray”! Learned yesterday that church is open to drop in to pray.  Going out for dinner and going to mass are what we have missed most.  Will continue to stay positive, keep moving forward, will be traveling to Alaska in July,  Grandchild # 7 is due on the 17th.===JACK:  Blue Skies seems to fit your life, even during the pandemic.  So, the church is open for prayer?  Hooray for that as well as Hooray for golf!

FROM HY YO SILVER:  I’m fat. I’ve put on an unacceptable amount of weight. And you?  How are you!?===JACK:  I'm still in Minnesota, eating well, walking regularly...and I'm still at the same weight I was when I was in my twenties.  I was doing some reading and saw that Navin Field (Tiger Stadium) was opened in 1912 and the Tigers player went on strike over the suspension of Ty Cobb.  A team of coaches and other non-pros replaced them

FROM TAMPA SHIRL:  That is amazing that u have 500 people on your list! Congratulations! ===JACK:  ...and you were one of the first of the 500.  Keep breathing!
