I read this book twenty-six years ago, and remember how glad I was that I'd discovered it. Four years later, I reread it—and remember thinking that was the last time I'd need it . . . so I forgot all about it. No wonder it has disappeared.
No wonder I couldn't find it anywhere yesterday, now that I need it again.
I should have realized it would be needed every twenty-five years or so. Why didn't I save it? Oh well, there goes another three bucks wasted. (It's not the first time I've wasted money, though.)
Anyway, the problem is now solved. I bought a replacement copy from Amazon, and it is on its way to my son and his wife.
Also: I've already told them I won't at all mind being called "Gramps."
