Is that what happened?  Eugene send $50,000  of your tax dollars to Katmandu?

You are correct.  I missed that.

As far as anything personal between yourself and me is concerned, a couple of things.

Don't worry about me too much.  I'm still alive, breathing the same air you are, and not costing you a penny.  My entire SS check goes right back into the system every month, much of it to support our state parks.

Another thing:  Life is risk.  You win a few, you lose a few.

Don't ever take a chance, my friend.  You might fail.
