Just wait and see. We are going to all die, it is just a matter of when and how.
True enough. We are all going to die. I prefer to have some control over how and where. That is a liberty that I cherish. I may not get it, but I will try hard. My wife had her first heart attack at 0520 31 Oct this year. It would have been easy to let her go, but I had a choice to call 911. She is doing well and we get to enjoy Christmas with her.

With all smiles you had to make a choice for her, I am talking a choice for are selves.
i am my mothers care giver, she has CHF and a number of other things and 96.5 years old and a will of a Jackass/Donkey. Mentally sharp. I cant do anything do her demise, and God willing, my oldest Bro died on this date 6 years ago, her first born. I just want to take care of her at home and I have help, and out live her.
I am her favorite of 3 sons and the youngest spoiled daughter/sister

Lover, you DO need to work on your use of the
quotes feature!

If I didn't know "The (as Paul Harvey used to say)
Rest of the Story," I'd be confused as hell, thinking
that Steve (SwampGator) was ALSO watching his
elderly mother.

Since I used to be a Moderator on a V-Bulletin
based Forum, I'm SOMEWHAT familiar with how
they run. (But, in NO WAY an expert!) :D

10 ER, stripped down.
Basic 10ER, Parts machine. Will be a semi-dedicated drill-press machine.
10 ER, a "survivor" of the trailer fire, in the back yard, needing restoration. Has a Mk5 headrest. Finally, stripped down.
Numerous parts, for Model 10 stuff. Except for lower saw guard, A and B adapters, I've got it.

Looking for one more, or some 9 inch extension table raisers.

I expect change from what we had. More than that, I won't expect.

Fact we are all going to die. We don't know when or how but we will die. The only choice we have is whether we will be known as a person of integrity, righteous and moral or the world is better place now that they are gone.

Who you voted for and why is part of that legacy.

What one runs for and why is a greater judgement of integrity.

Something greatly missing this cycle. :(

Yes, the current of "1600" is DISGUSTING!
But, how much better is "You're Fired?"

I have to totally agree with you, Steve. It was a loose, loose situation for me as a Viet Nam veteran. I well remember when Admiral Keth and LBJ cooked up the story to get that crap started, and I fear we are in for more of the same. Now, the nuclear war is getting started up again.

Actually the crap started long before LBJ. He was handed the hot potato from Kennedy who is never mentioned in the mess.

That's an illusion most of us share. Ecclesiastes 9:11 (Note the 9-11)
The race is not to the swift or the battle to the strong, nor does food come to the wise or wealth to the brilliant or favor to the learned; but time and chance happen to them all.
