Although I was unusually close (physially and emotionally) to my parents efore heir deaths in 1997, there were still bits and pieces for which I have NO freakin' clue as to the what/why/where of it/them. Ergo, I'm putting it all down in a codecil for my LWAT, so that the collection of rocks have a provenance for whomever will get'm...or the weird trophies I *did* keep will have the story of how it was earned, or just stuff I've collected, over the years. At least then, *they'll* have a story to tell people of the big, funny-lookin' rock they now have on THEIR mantle, or the connecting rod that's bent all to hell! 'Nuther cuppla years, I'll have it alll done! Careful, chuck...yer mentioned by *name* in that will.... :):):) Do as I’m doing: I’m writing a loooong narrative, called “The Story Of All My Shit!”
