I rarely pat myself on the back, but I emailed a link
of the first one I've included here to my aunt.

are you familiar with the Robert Ruark novel "The Honey Badger"? The others were lovely...particularly the one you sent to your aunt.

I found this link about Robert Ruark's novel "The Honey Badger":

Spoilers http://dd-b.net/dd-b/Ouroboros/booknotes/data/ruarkr-thehoneybadger.html

Until 3 months ago, I had not spoken to my aunt in over 40 years. I hope my thread
gave her some measure of comfort as we will probably not see one another again in this lifetime.
She will be 80 on her next birthday.

you saw what the honey badger attacks supposedly? His hero makes a particularly vicious comparison between the honey badger and one of the women in his life...

That was very kind of you reaching out to your aunt that way.
