Love, love, LOVED Anderson's interview w/ Melissa today; especially hearing him laugh so much, sounds just like my cousin Joey
Have always admired you for your work and no-fear trips on CNN. The way you have so much compassion for the People regardless of Gender, Race and Religion.
I had never been taught anything about prejudices. Learned the hard way when working in Wash.,DC while we still had stupid segregation. Complained to Parents for not making me aware. Dad's answer "How do you teach hate"?. Have had most wonderful experiences through volunteer work. Unforgetable trip as driver with 1984 Olympics,etc. Married/Widowed by man who's advocation was Jazz Musician. Both loved traveling by RV MH. While Son in college, we were fortunate to travel all mainland 48. Attended classes to learn Clowning and joined COAI as Kris-Ko prior to retiring. Now inactive. Probably should delete all this. Have outlived my Family & Jim's Family. My saying about age~ "only matters if you are buying wine or cheese". Definitely surprised when you told her age. May both of you always b blessed by good health.Jean/Kris-Ko.
