Jackums

<p>I've reached that age that when I'm squirted with perfume by a sales girl in a department store I can go home without fear.</p><p>My first awareness of anything sexual was the Sears Roebuck catalogue. Somewhere in its 1000 pages were the bra and girdle advertisements.</p><p>My first month's paycheck in the Air Corps was $32.00. The withholding tax was about $4.00 so I had $28.00 a month to splurge. It was a tight squeeze until I learned to play poker.</p><p>Sometimes I wonder if there are any more tears to be shed.</p><p>It was 3:30 in the morning but every one of the 3000 men on the troopship was on deck to see the Statue of Liberty as we sailed into New York Harbor.</p><p>My clothing comes from other outlets but I don't mind receiving catalogs from Victoria's Secret.</p><p>Youth will never understand that time passes slowly for them and quickly for us looking back.</p>
