  2. ::Thank you:: so much for taking the time to read and comment. Yes, I never knew what a Dead Man's Hand meant-- Aces and Eights-- or that they were the cards James Butler Hickok was holding when he was shot in the back. ::Thank you:: for encouraging me to try to free my words in this forum. It means the world.
