Uncle Henry?

Post by Joe Dirt »

Who was Uncle Henry? ::shrug::

Was he Georges uncle?

Georges brother?

Maybe my uncle- "Henry Grimshaw" :roll:

I know George couldn't sit still for very long.
Seems he would finish a project and just move away to start on the next one.
Was Henry someone he met along the way in his adventures?

"Uncle Henry D. Baer"

Thanks guys ::tu::

Funny how we take things for granted.
Before today, it was just a shield on a knife.

Now, who knows Jack (jack knife)? :lol:

You sure look a lot younger than that in your "picture" . :shock: I really appreciate your obit article . I ran a few copies for my fellow knife enthusiasts . P.S. My poor old crooked arthritic finger has a hard time "pecking" the correct key even after my old forgetful mind and failing eyesight finds it !

Oh, you mean my old '28 year book picture? That was just two days after the lightning strike, ain't been quite right since...but those old Jack Benny broadcasts I still pick up late at night...when it's all kinda quiet and peaceful...sure entertain the dickens out of me still. Funny how them radiowaves just seem to bounce around forever.

What makes it real tough is when your typing finger
is also your knife cleanup finger.
Gives that ole saying about 'worn down to the knub'
some real meaning.
