The Moody Bugle

About this Blog

The title, "The Moody Bugle," comes from a series of letters my Grandmother wrote during World War II to her five sons in the military and her two daughters. The "Bugle" was eight pieces of onion skin typing paper, with seven pieces of carbon paper between them, jammed into a Royal typewriter with the platen open. One copy went into the family file, the other seven went to the various postings of sons and daughters around the world. Once, every seven weeks, you'd be the one who got the final, hard to read, copy. When my grandmother died in the late 1960s, my grandfather gave these letters to me. I treasure them still and hope, that in some small way, these electronic musings will somehow match the heart, humor and humanity found in those original letters.

Basically, friends, we're going to cover everything, whatever is on my mind or yours. Jump in!
