    Uncle Sam, i miss he time that passed us by where we just didn't keep in touch like we once did. Love you, I am reminded of times as an adult that I learned so much from you, even though I only we only spent a few long nights alone with each other. Keep things interesting and I'll catch up with you on the other side one day. Then we will have forever to finish our chats over drinks.
