Which Reminds Me

Yes, I vaguely remember hearing someone say they are going to set up Uncle Sam as their role model. Hmmm. And I had always thought that Uncle Sam was a fictitious character of American folklore, a thin elderly man wearing a goatee and star-spangled clothing. You can make fictitious people say anything that you want them to say. Only years later did I learn that my Dad actually does have an Uncle Sam, although I never saw him or knew of his existence. Oh, I didn't know that.
