Do you know what happens to a couple,of love birds in a cage who start getting on each other's nerves? One of them pecks the other to death. Then eats him, or her, Well, I'm pretty tender and my wife is very tough, so I'm keeping a close eye on her, I gave her a big hug the other day. It's her left ankle, my right toe, they collided, we both yelped and there were mutual recriminations. Next time, I'll hug her from behind, or sideways, or something. But this is all trivia, I await, cringing, the third accident in the second series. And it will probably be on the phone any minute. I was idiotic enough to lend my car to daughter Kim and her husband. They took off in the poor old battered brute a couple of hours ago, for the city, where they have to apply for student loans, register for college, find a place to live, and all such.

Or, I'll get a hernia carrying out the empty beverage bottles. Or my wife will slip on her gimpy leg going downstairs and break her other one, It's not that I'm superstitious. It's just that I have this im- mutable hunch that Somebody, up there, or down there, is trying to punish me for all my past sins, all at once.

Imagine your feeling if you had been watching the DC9 approach the airport and then make a complete circle and head off again into the distance. We didn't stop to talk to any who had been awaiting the arrival of the plane, but we could well imagine the thoughts of hijacking, etc., which must have danced through their minds before the airport announcement was made as to our course.
