Subject: Speaking of anniversaries......I must have this penchant for dealing with the macabre. Today is May 23, the birthday of my first girlfriend. Since I broke up with her in 1968, I have no idea where she is today. But I always remember her birthday because it's on the anniversary of the day that Bonnie and Clyde were gunned down near Shreveport, Louisiana in 1934 (no, I wasn't there). Flash forward from her a couple of years to 1970 when I met my wife. Her birthday was on April 30th and that happens to be the anniversary of the day that Adolph Hitler and Eva Braun committed suicide. OK I'm done with establishing relationships with new women! |
