Menused to wore jackets and ties to baseball games and women wore dresses.

I open doors for women & the elderly (never thought I’d be saying that word at my age) and try and respect others but I’ve also worn a hat in a restaurant occasionally.

Again things change. Not always for the better, but they change. You can flow with the river or be the rock. The rock eventually gets worn away.

I don't let someone wearing a hat in a restaurant bother me but loud uncontrolled whinny kids would.
You would get arrested today if people did what I did when my kids acted up in a restaurant.

I guess my 3 kids turned out terrific in spite of me, not because of me?
I have no regrets, esp after seeing many of the kids my children grew up with strung out on drugs, in the Billerica house of correction, or dead.
I just hope my 6 grandchildren turn out as good as their parents but I'm not sure if I'll be around to attest to that.
As for the Woodshed, I've only been there 3 times but at my last visit I wasn't impressed. I prefer O's in Laconia.
