21. I've said this before here - he and I were born in the same general neighborhood....

...in the same generation. He's six years older than me and we lived about 2 miles apart.

The one thing my parents taught us is that one of the rudest things is pointing. Period. As you say, I'm surprised he still has that finger. If he grew up on my block someone would have snapped it off before he reached his teens.

Plus, he hasn't lived in Brooklyn for almost 60 years, why does he still have that horrible accent. I lived in the NYC until I was forty, I have NO touch of an accent (except my wife tells me lapse into it when I have a drink!)

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
