(Reworked from several old posts.)
In 1979, when I wrote this, it was meant to be a joke just for Bud
because I was tired of getting Xmas newsletters that said my husband was just
elected God or my child just turned 6 & he's already Phi Beta Kappa. It's
based on truth, as most humor is. Nameless was studying in
Europe, Matt was at Northridge & worked for a sewer company. The “chunnel”
(the tunnel across the English Channel) had not yet been built--I don’t know if
it had even been planned at the time. Blake had just gotten his driver's
license. General Motors was doing a lot better than they are now & we did
buy a treadmill--also, we had a dog, Pepi. Bud liked it so much we sent it out
with our cards. After receiving it, a friend told me that her husband asked her
how I could brag like that. I liked her simple explanation: “It’s satire,
stupid!”
