He Was a Gentleman and a Scholar



For some reason, I have been thinking of Shelby Foote off and on all day today. He was one of the people I most would have liked to have dinner with. I even named one of my cats after him, an honor he would probably have found dubious, but would have been too polite to remark upon.

You've got that right. Love you!

I liked him also. He surely had a lot of knowledge.
