    Oh I get it now! The same letters are used to spell “very top ” as are used to spell ” poverty ”
    Very clever boys!

    That aspect eluded me completely, JT. Thanks for pointing that out to your dear old uncle!

    Peace,

    The first time I looked at it, I saw “very top”, but I knew that didn’t fit. Happy Holidays!
