Very true Charlie.   I've always thought of myself as a mirror.  What you 
see when you look into my mirror is a reflection of you.  If it's a smile, 
I'll be smiling if it's a war painted face then you can expect the same. 
Wade and I are both sort of Alpha males but we respect each other and have 
never had a cross word in 20 some odd years.  There have been times when he 
got under my skin but I let it go and I'm sure he feels the same way.

When I first purchased my home in 1967, I asked the old gentleman next
door if he was a good neighbor.  His reply was that he was usually as
good a neighbor as his neighbor.  I always thought that reply carried
some wisdom, and we got along fine for a number of years.  Funny how
things change.  Now I am the old guy saying that.
