Thanks again, Ernie.<br />
<br />
I really appreciate your kind words, Brother. But again, what you're admiring is simply a portrait of yourself. What probably caught your attention was that it shocked you to see it, because boomers are rarely given credit for what they've contributed to this society and the world.
