I like Essay November 8th 2018 The memories I have of my Great Grandmother Lee are truly fuzzy … but, the one thing I remember about her… is that she would never say, “Good-bye”… She would say, “I love you and see you next time…” But, never, ever… would she say the word, “Good-bye”. So, I guess it’s in my DNA, I dislike the whole concept of good-byes…. How can it be ‘good’ if you are telling someone ‘bye’? I like the fact that whenever my fly was open, my parents would say, “XYZ” as our secret code for eXamine Your Zipper… I like to think of the Hereford heifers in Hereford, Texas… say that aloud …. But lately, I get these nutty robo calls and the ID is Hereford, Texas. I don’t like that. Robo calls take a little bit of our limited time on Earth away and we never will get that time back. I like dogs with black ‘roofs of their mouths’. Dad Goddard always said that good dogs have black roofs of the mouth. He never cited the study but I still look in dogs’ mouths
