In through the window and out of the door and isn't that what money is for?

adages, pages of history being lost in my memory occasionally resurface.

we used to have lots of sayings
and old wives tales
I wonder where they went.

if Dad said you'll get what for and you asked what for?
you got what for even if you didn't know what for,

the way wasn't the light back then
it was just the way things were.
