Dad, it's been 44 years 1 month and a day since I saw you on my birthday at your funeral. I still remember your left index finger sticking up in your coffin. Ever since then, I've had to touch the bodies in coffins to make sure they're dead. Caused a few gals to faint at funerals ever since.
I gave my new tax accountant gal one of those coins that you brought back from WW2, she loved it. One of my friends here gave me a link to what it's worth ($2- 10). I was going to give her a gold eagle, but thought that might be inappropriate. Ended up giving the eagle to a young fella who is taking care of his daughter on his own.
Anyway, you probably know how much shit I've been through over the years, I took what you taught me in the short time you were alive and I ran with it. I kept Mom in the house that I built for her and Harold and Carol as long as I could. She died peacefully (doped up) in hospice. I could be so lucky. Cuddles is with you now also.
I did the best I could, Dad. I miss you.

BTW, the girl that "ruined your life" is now back in mine, working on me. I'll probably be OK. Regardless, my job is done.
Well, this is one reason to add a "Like" feature to the forum software.
Thanks Pin, don't do it on my account, to be honest, I'd prefer you don't. That may lead to divisions. God knows we've already got enough of those going on in the country/world.
I prefer good, reasoned debate, but it's your and 4um's decision, not mine.
Damn glad to see you Pin! I thought you might've been WuFlu'd.
I like imagining 4umers in my mind from what they say, face to face (key to key), as it may be.
Maybe you could do one of your voting thingys, taking all of everybody's wants and doing it that way. Just a thought.

In the earliest days of LP, the idea was nixed as it would be abused to stack likes up unfairly, with fake accounts and all that. I don't htink that would be much problem these days though.

Well, so far as I know I don't have it. One of my clients got it though. He's out in Arizona. Got the news this AM. 102 fever and dry cough. Odds favor anyone who catches this, including those who have symptoms.

I'm a bit busy so would prefer not to tinker with things.
