Interesting perspective, Marji. Got me to go back and look at Robbie Robertson’s lyrics:
“Hey, buddy, would you like to buy a watch real cheap?
Here on the street
I got six on each arm
And two more 'round my feet
Life is a carnival
Believe it or not
Life is a carnival
Two bits a shot…”
Seems like he’s talking primarily about your parental view, a little wary, maybe cynical, trying to sell your wares, not get taken advantage of, but also make sure you take your “shot.” 😎
Thanks for recounting this journey, Marji! So relatable!

Love that interpretation!
