Thank you for the story about Mac and yourself. Two of my best loved folks in the world are no longer here. I met them through their son who is a very close friend of mine. I became very close to Lee and Ken and spent more time with them than I did with their son. I loved them so much and they returned that love many times over. Many hours were spent well into the late evening playing cards and eating eskimo pies.We laughed, cursed and competed at cut-throat pinochle like our life depended on it. It was a refuge from the world for me.. They were near 80 at the time. Lee passed away about four years ago and Ken about 2 years ago. Here's a photo I made of them together in 2009. I miss them so much.

Just a great photograph my friend. Excellent print job too. Makes me wish I still had a darkroom.

We are better people having known such great friends and loved ones. We cherish the times we had together.

Good afternoon. Very busy day at work as we prepare for the white glove tommorrow. Big big big huge mega signs our general managers paycheck BOSS is coming by tommorrow for an inspection so it's basically we all kill ourselves to clean the entire store spotless.


And it finally happened. There is a curse at Wendy's. Every single person who works here currently has cracked their phone at work.

Two year contract, uninsured. Only choice is to pay someone to fix it now.

That's not the only choice at all.

I never use my phone. Hate the damn things. Everyone i met today either became one-handed because of a phone in the other, and therefore could not steer a shopping trolley (and presumably a car) in a straight line or they had it resting on their shoulder, yapping away.

I hate apple. I truly and unabashedly do. But the only thing I like is the OS. I have had very bad experience with the unstable OS of android products in the past. Other than that android does everything better orz

Jen, i'm so sorry for both of your losses.....but I'm also very glad that your last back surgery seems to have been successful!

The only grand parents i remember were my dad's father...a hateful s.o.b., and my mom's mother, the sweetest woman ever...tho her husband was also an s.o.b.

Cherish the times you had with him...
