THE FOOTNOTES

We have two new friends thanks to Max. They are Francisco and Walter. Francisco was born in Mexico and came to California at age seven. Walter is from South Bombay, India. They and Max are all PhD candidates at UCONN

We had a Christmas Dinner with them and Peggy today. Moe produced another great meal. Peggy contributed her specialty, Broccoli casserole. Afterward, we watched High Anxiety. It was interesting to me to note that although we from widely spaced places on the globe, we all laughed at the same things, and our table conversation was varied and entertaining.

I couldn't help but think about something I used to hear about in church a long time ago.

A man was having a wedding reception for his daughter, and when invited guests didn't appear, he went out on the highways and byways and brought in people who did. It was a great day for us.
