Life is like a game of cards – The hand that is dealt you
Represents determinism; the way you play it is free-will.

Bobbi and Me
Last Thoughts
© D. Erick Emert
- They met on a school trip – a classical music program in Philadelphia in 1960.
- They spoke on the phone during the summer of 1961.
- He asked her to dance during the last dance of their sophomore year, 1963.
- They finally spoke to each other two weeks before their graduation, 1966
- They got engaged during their first date on a fishing trip the same day as above in 1966.
- That night they told her parents what their plans were after graduation.
After reading the first two chapters of Bobbi and Me, you’re probably thinking these two are a bit quirky. Quite possibly, you may be right. Their time at Kurtz College is stuff that school legends are made from. And the rest of their life together makes that first date in June of 1966 look totally normal. Don’t get me wrong. Theirs is a good story albeit a bit unusual. The beauty of it is, they’re still married, still living, and still very much in love. No, I’m not spilling the beans, this story is about the journey – not the end.

Interesting…
And now…can you remind me which book of quotations you use? I bought the wrong one, muddling your recommendations of moons gone by!
Hey Sputs. It’s Peter’s Quotations, Ideas for our time, by Dr. Laurence J. Peter (author of The Peter Principle) It’s available from Amazon.Com, of course.
