A few years ago after I retired, I thought it would be amusing to write a book to distribute to my pallbearers so that I would have the last word. Along the way, I accidentally got a website and published the essays there (oldartguy.com). It looked as though the pallbearers were screwed: they would have to settle for a coke and maybe a nice sandwich. I've written so many essays over the last few years, I thought a book including a few of my essays would be appropriate. The pallbearers are back in the game. Most of us do not lead extraordinary lives, but we all have experiences and values and interpretations of life which are worthy of being recorded in the form of essays. If you're an older fellow, you might want to write essays for your children or grandchildren or, for that matter, your great-grandchildren. If you're a younger fellow, you might want to get some of your jumbled up thoughts organized in a little more usable way. When you get older and feel embarrassed by your early thoughts, you can always apologize. The book includes nineteen essays which I hope you and the pallbearers, bless their hearts, enjoy.
