*
A son is a son till he
takes him a wife;
a daughter is a daughter
all of her life.

The man behind the curtain
- Damien
- I like words, images, graphic design, well-turned phrases, doodling, humor and profundity. These are found in every quarter and I'm always on the hunt. I was rescued (in November, 1974) from guilt and a stubborn irrational belief in an impersonal chance universe (with the accompanying hopelessness). I'm now convinced that nothing is more obvious or worthy of our attention than our Creator and the one true ancient path. Only Jesus has the words of everlasting life. Like John Newton "I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see."

My dad will be happy to hear that.
sweet!
I am Sorry but that saying is completely bass ackwards- A son is a son till he takes a wife, a daughter is a daughter all of her life-- Think about this people- If a son is no longer a son after he marries, why then does the sequence go- IE Joseph Sr - Joseph jr- Joseph III IV ... and not IE Jane Sr, Jane jr, Jane III, IV ... and why in the olden days did the brides family have a DOWRY for the daughter- in essence paying the groom to take their daughter, and why for example did the Rockefeller MEN take the family wealth from generation to generation?

It is more properly: A daughter is a daughter till you give her away but a son is a son all of his day
