TO ROBBIES EVERYWHERE

Well it's Robbie Burns Day. To Scotsmen it is a special day. I have been to a Robbie Burns Dinner/Dance once or twice in my life. Danced the "Gay Gordon" and listened to Ode to the Haggis. The name Robert is a strong name. Have a brother by that name. A cousin in Italy is Roberta- the feminine version of the name. Love Robert Redford and his movies. What about those other actors- Robert Di Niro and Robert Duvall. Baseball players- Roberto Alomar and Roberto Clemente. Books by Robert Ludlum have been so enjoyable. A famous Kennedy- Robert. From Germanic roots in the Middle Ages the name means bright fame. Do you have a favourite Robert in your life? Have you ever read the poetry by Robbie Burns? Here's to Rob, Bob, Robbie, Bobbie!
