Uncle Bill Still Has It

[Big Bob]

Just logged on and was looking at today's list of birthday boys (and girls) when something caught my eye. Below the birthday forumites are some stats for BF. Yep, ole' Uncle Bill still has the highest number of posts here, more than a year after his passing. Though several of his last posts were by Yangdu, its an impressive accomplishment nonetheless.

A regular chatterbox...and *so* many of his posts are still worth reading. Quite a testament.

He was a master of saying much with just a few words.

It was a treat when he would let loose and type in a whole story. The story of the flute player (Tamang?) on the roof is worth looking up and reading. If anyone finds it please place a linky here!!!

"The Tamang on the Rooftop" is in the FAQ, on the "Pokhara Sunrise and other Essays" page.

It ends with a wonderful line: "Heard melodies are sweet but those unheard are sweeter."

His example kept the house from blowing apart. No one wanted to tresspass.

Berk,

Thank you for that link. I'd never read those stories before, but they were touching and I enjoyed every one of them.

Thanks.

Take care.
