I have never liked stereotyping people. I’m not good at it, and I almost always feel bad if I do.

Of course, it’s just a part of who we are for many reasons.

When we were working on a lot of church restoration, if I drove up to a church with mostly management people, I would often since I was facing an uphill battle if I wanted to continue pursuing the project. Or, as we say in the country, he must have jumped the fence, or he’s on the other team.

If I pulled up to a church with working-class people, I could barely get out of the truck before they asked when could we start.

As an artist, I sense the stereotyping. We’re often thought of as gregarious and outgoing, but I’m the exact opposite.

The fellow above is Everett, my accountant for the last fifty years. I bet you didn’t see that coming.

Anyway, it’s an interesting and entertaining world in which we live.
