Default Re: Sometimes I envy my Dad

Hi Guys,
When I think of my dad who died in 2004 he was so smart he studied Veterinary Science and with only one year left he dropped out and started drinking.

I wish I had half the brains that he had. I am the last of six in my family and I have asked my brothers many times why he started drinking and they said " no Idea".

I remember once he found a dog near our place in Sydney that had been hit by a car. he took it back to our place made a bed for it in the garage and brought bandagers and looked after it till it recovered from its injury's and then tracked down the owners.

My parents divorced when I was 13 years but I kept in touch with the old man and he remarried but still couldn't stop drinking. I often wonder if the drink didn't get to him what he would turned out doing?

With his brains he could have done anything "what a waste".
