But, this one day, she did not come out play, so his chain of failures remained unbroken. Late in life he became chief cook and bottle washer at a restaurant in Corbin. And did all right until the new highway bypassed the restaurant. And then his expected life span ran out. He was not the first man nor would he be the last to arrive at the twilight of life with nothing to show for it. The bluebird of happiness, or whatever, had always flown just out of reach. He'd stayed honest - except for that one time when he had attempted kidnapping. In fairness to his name it must be noted that it was his own daughter he'd meant to kidnap from his runaway wife. And they both returned to him, the next day, anyway. But now the years had passed by and a lifetime was gone and he and they had nothing. He had not really felt old until that day the postman brought his first Social Security check.
