    He's fine. I'm in touch with him on Substack. He's spending his writing time on more artistic pursuits. Quite a talented poet. George and I text quite a bit and I see him on FB.

    I do miss Jolly and Copper. I do not think it's a matter of being tired of defending Trump, but a deep conviction that what Trump is doing is what the nation needs. In some ways I agree with that but I'm not crazy about the heavy-handed way he goes about things.

    I miss Aqua and George.

    Those other two, not in the least.

      TNCR is dying. Of AIDS.

      Education is extremely important.

              I know he was real, but there was a question as to whether he really died.

                Yes, I think that was verified.

                  He and Lucy visited me in Brooklyn and stayed in my apartment in Canary Wharf when he came up for treatment. He even had a key to use it when I wasn’t there.

                  I was supposed to see him towards his final days but he called and canceled. He was obviously unwell.

                    Lucy - I was trying to think of her name.

                      I didn’t know, or at least don’t recall, that Rick had passed away. When was that?

                      I remember Phlebas sudden passing. For some reason I also recollect there was some controversy surrounding it, can’t remember though what it was about.

                        I was supposed to see him in February of 2010 when he called to cancel. He died shortly thereafter.

                                It wasn’t mentioned here at the time. Though I think it was years later when his daughter popped in to say hi.

                                    I don't think that was ever revealed.

                                        I wonder how many still check in but don’t post. I go through phases of not posting, but I usually check in regularly to see what’s up.

                                          If I recall correctly he was quite an accomplished pianist. He seemed very familiar with some of the more obscure 19 and 20 century repertoire and composers..
