    Wow I remember when he joined and there was a long debate if he was a sock puppet or not. As moderator I had to try to figure that out but ultimately didn't do anything IIRC. I recall his first mentions of being sick were even thought as immature ploys to further his puppetry, which obviously ended up not being the case.

    He and Lucy came to my place in Brooklyn, and later when he was sick he would stay at my London flat when he came up for treatment. (By then he was with a different girl and living in the south of England.)

    I spoke to him days before he died. He knew it was the end. I had tentative plans to visit him in the hospital but when the day came he wasn’t up to it.

      I’m still alive and read many posts. I don’t play piano anymore. Although I’ve little to contribute, I enjoy discussion of newsworthy topics. Many of you are very intelligent and articulate. This makes me think and keeps my mind young. Thank you. I too want to thank the devoted tech minds who’ve upgraded the forum over the years and communicated seamless viewer links.

      @blondie

      Howdy Blondie! How are things in Cowtown, Alberta? Will be passing through there on Stoney Trail come Saturday after three weeks in The land of Bring Cash on my back home to Edmonchuk.

      Hope all is well with you and the family. We should chat sometime- a lot of water under the bridge since we last spoke.

      Elbows up!

              @brenda lol, today I can post a bit, as I put off domestic stuff. You & Apple I often think of. And admire. Both of you have accomplished so much on the home front. Cats’ posts make me smile.

                @blondie Good to "see" you back

                Same for @Tom-K @Frank_W etc who returned, hopefully not for a short term.

                There is a Chinese saying - nothing brings a family together like weddings and funerals!! LOL

                  Old joke:

                  Q: What's the difference between an Irish wedding and an Irish funeral?

                  A: One less drunk.

                  The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
