[blparent] naming and decorating canes

[Allie]

I have had Charlie and Trevor ... for some reason, canes seem kinda, masculine to me. Hahahahaha. 
Maybe it's because they're ... well, never mind! Grins.

A smile costs nothing but gives much.  It enriches those who receive without making poorer those who 
give.  It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever.  None is so rich or 
mighty that he cannot get along without it and none is so poor that he cannot be made rich by it. 
Yet a smile cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is of no value 
to anyone until it is given away.  Some people are too tired to give you a smile.  Give them one of 
yours, as none needs a smile so much as he who has no more to give.

Hmmm, I've never thought of it, but it probably does mean that. Is it
spelled Palo? I know alot of canes with names.  Dave Andrews cane's name is
Harry, I think. Some of the names I've had are:  Emmi, Olivia, Bernard,
Oscar, Mark, Emily and Casper.  i can't think of anyone else right now. V
