Thanx to the Late H. Allen Smith.


WHEREAS, today is slotted into that never-never region in which dwell men
and women who should have known better last night, and
WHEREAS, such men and women are undeserving of either consoling words or any
contrived refuge from the pain of remorse, and
WHEREAS, medical science has developed no antidote for the desolation
wrought by self-indulgence, and
WHEREAS, only the passage of time can repair suffered through conformity
with idiotic custom, and
WHEREAS, men and women of character and intelligence and the grace that
comes with maturity observed the blending of two mathematical segments of
time with neither wonder nor emotion and so witnessed the flame of the
rising sun with the great joy of good health and consciences unsoiled, then,
therefore
BE IT RESOLVED, that such men and women as described in paragraphs 1 and 2
of the Preamble hereto and properly living in misery and disgrace and
seemingly in the shadow of death, be accorded from such men and women as
described in the Preamble glowing with vigor snd sublimely free of sin, no
words but these

"WE TOLD YOU SO!"
