Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose

Knuckles up

When we were kids it was US against them all. We were alone, really. I did have friends but when the chips were down it was Three Gravils knuckles up, back to back. And many many times that was the only real friends I had. Three Gravils. Shoulder to shoulder.

I had hoped for more for my children. I wanted them to have friends. I wanted them to have more than I had. I wanted...

But it's not that simple is it?

Now it's four Gravils.

Knuckles up.

Back to Back.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.
