    Sometimes life is like a freeway.., you're traveling along then suddenly you take that off ramp. A few things done, then you're off again. This man was extremely lucky in many regards. They both mentioned Dick Meadows who I met twice while he was running/supporting DEA operations in Peru. I don't know if these men will be in Heaven, but II do know Satan does not want then in Hell..
