    at least Nelson didn’t think of himself as Earl’s hare… why would the former be the latter’s bunny rabbit?

    Earl could have responded, “Yes Nelson, you’re my hair for me.”

    That would probably be the easier solution, Earl. Just disinherit your grandson.

    Should I die first, the wife gets it all. Should she die first, I’m getting a new will and leaving everything to my dogs.

    If Nelson was in his will, he would be his legatee, not his heir, which only refers to intestate succession. Opal, then Sylvia, would be his heirs. More likely he has a living trust and Nelson would be a beneficiary. I’m sure everyone here wants to hear a discourse on legal terminology. I could explain the Rule Against Perpetuities.

    Your choice if you have a nest egg that you will eventually share: Give with a warm hand or a cold one.

    Try, “You’re my heir, as in error.” with a chuckle and ruffling the grandson’s hair.

    I hope Nelson doesn’t go in any puddles. Else grandpa will need a heir dryer!

    You are his hair. Or at least the hair he had 50 years ago.

    Don’t know if this is true of all Asians, but I have to say my mom is as superstitious about death as anyone I’ve ever met, so I grew up with something of the same bent. Which made it really awkward when I would have dinner with friends or girlfriends’ families and there would be this casual discussion about, “Oh, when I go you get this dish set, but the silverware goes to your sister.” “Right, I’ll hold you that – should I put little labels on them?” Took a lot not to be squirming from the uncomfortable nature of such conversations.

    Q: What’s the difference between a crown prince, a bald man, and a gorilla? A: The crown prince is the heir apparent; a bald man has no hair apparent; and a gorilla is a hairy parent!
