Happy Independence Day

It was 223 years ago today that the United States of America was born. As you go about your business today, please remember the sacrifices of those who helped make this great country or ours the land of the free and the home of the brave. That is what the Fourth of July is really about. Happy birthday America!




Dear Cg & Mcb,
I am so very happy for your obvious love for one another and for your relationship, but I am so very jealous at the same time.
You see, when I was 40 or so, I was married to a wonderful lady who was 11 years my junior.
Our sex life was also fantastic, quite similar to your own and at least every day, sometimes three times a day.
Then one day, she decided that her life would be better with her very rich boss and left to marry him.
Unfortunately for her it wasn’t and she is now divorced again and is living in a rough flat in a very run down area in a town in mid England.
My self, I now live in a loveless relationship in the South of France.
My wife left around 15 years ago, and I still think of her every day and still miss her like crazy.
I appreciate that at 60 my sex drive would be some what diminished, but I still long for and miss what I know would have been a wonderful, if perhaps more gentle relationship
The point of this note is to say, if you have it, work at it.
They say that the grass is greener, etc, but it seldom is, well not for long.
