   My parents paid me a nickel for each “A”. But I suppose that compared to what my dad made in the coal mines in the 1950’s, it sufficed. And, boy, was I glad to get it!

   I picked up the habit when I went into the Marine Corps. I smoked for 25 years. I stopped – cold turkey- 35 years ago (yeah, I’m old). Never looked back. The doctor asked me if I smoked and that was it. I said, “As of now, I will never pick up another one!” Was I sure? No. I carried that last pack around in my pocket for a month and never went for one. Then I was sure!

   This is JUST my opinion, but I think the point here wasn’t that she said Frazz looked fit, but rather that she was buying all that “produce-y” food that he was going to have to eat! And that was what he was not pleased about!

   For anyone that is curious, a monkey is the platform that cannonballs were stacked on aboard ship. They were originally made from iron. When the iron contracted, the cannonballs rolled off the monkey and all over the ship. So, they started making them out of brass since it didn’t contract in cold weather. And the joke is, “It’s cold enough to freeze the balls off of a brass monkey” which it could not do. Just an exaggeration to show how cold it was!

   ANYBODY that is able bodied can climb a rope. You just have to know HOW to it. In ‘64 I joined the Marine Corps. When the day came to climbing the rope, I knew that I couldn’t do it. My DI asked what the problem was, and I told him that I couldn’t do it. Then he showed me how to lay the rope over one foot and press down with the other foot on top of the rope, pushing myself up. Then, reaching up and holding the rope while I drew my feet up….and push! Then use the same system in reverse to come down. I was 6’2", 138 pounds. They put pounds and muscle on me, but I still couldn’t climb that rope without using the method I mentioned. It’s all in knowing HOW!

    The IRS does NOT call anyone. If they want to contact you, they send a letter!
