Thats too bad Don there are alot of con-artist out there too.
My Dad was a great guy he used to take all the neiborhood kids out on our house boat on Lake Mead on the week ends. Lots of good times out there fishing, swimmng and exploring differant areas around Lake Mead which was on the south side of Hoover Dam or the Colorado river. All the kids in the neiborhood loved him because if a couple kids stopped by to see if my brother or I could come out and we were eating he would tell them to come in and have a seat. Then he would tell them to call their parents and ask if they could stay for dinner. Then he would tell my mom to order a couple extra pizza's we have company. Every year at Thanksgiving we had half the neiborhood over watching the foot ball games. then he would have about three table's of food set up were everyone could help themselves to what ever they wanted to eat or drink.
That was alway's my Dad's day Thanksgiving That's what I remember the best.
Then he died November 18th and we had viewing the day before Thanksgiving and buried the day after. I didn't think about it till a couple of years after he was gone but,
I guess he wanted one last Thanksgiving day party. That was his day and rightly so because he enjoyed food, family and good freinds. Not to mention a good knock down drag out football game.

Sometimes it's better to keep your mouth shut and have people think you are an idiot than to open it (or write a book) and remove all doubt.
