President Biden will be heading to Glasgow, Scotland in a few days for the U.N. Climate Conference. Whoever selected the time and place? Perhaps they wanted to observe the melting ice flows floating down from Greenland... ....Scotland in November? Joe will need his muffler, hat and gloves - and mask. (Mask rhymes with flask) which he might also carry in his hip pocket.
I was last in Glasgow in October 1964 compliments of USLines visiting the distillers and sampling their wares. That was when I switched from Canadian to Scotch. That's when the barmaid asked "Want any ice, Yank?"
There was an old Scotsman entertainer, Sir Harry Lauder, who sang something like this: "I belong to Glasgow, dear old Glasgow Toon, but there's something the matter with Glasgow, for it's going round and round -- Now I'm just a poor old working man as anyone here can see - but when I get a couple of drinks on a Saturday, GLASGOW BELONGS TO ME! Bon Voyage, Joe Biden. tjs
