My nephew, Joe, who is in the Navy and stationed in San Diego (poor kid) called my sister and told her that he signed up to run the Avon (New Jersey) 5K in June and that she and Uncle Al (me) should run it as well.
One of the Last Things My Mother Ever Said to Me
Sometimes Parents Are Not Always Right

Born With An Expiration Date
My premonition on the day I’m going to die
This Experience With A Psychic Sent Shivers Down My Spine
I love psychics (but you knew that).
