Some Things Are More Important Than Politics

 
I just returned from visiting my 95-year-old parents at their home in California. While I was there, I thought about politics not at all. Sometimes there are things that completely override politics on our lives. Here's a photo of me with my mother, who suffers from dementia, but can be lucid once in a while, like she was when this photo was taken. My father hates having his photo taken. Between the two of them, I think I got a pretty good set of genes for longevity.

This is more important than politics. My father flew B-17s in WWII, while my mother was carrying me when she was just 20. Last June, they celebrated their 75th wedding anniversary.

You look like an ahole.

Didn't MM brag that he still used an old flip phone, not long ago?  Maybe I'm thinking of someone else.

Hopefully the longevity gene skips a generation.
