Re: Mrs. W in IA

Well, since this is where it all started, and since nothing ever feels real until its posted here, I guess now is the time. After almost 8 years, 5 of which have involved near total paralysis, Patty will be going into a nursing facility in roughly 2 weeks, when a private room opens up. I've done all...

Re: Heathens Homecoming 2018

Hey kids, I've made other plans for rooming, so just cancelled a reservation for a King room at the Days Inn. If anyone is feeling brave enough, maybe try to swoop in and grab it.
See you soon.

Things have been going pretty steadily downhill here recently, nothing drastic, but noticeable. For a long time, several yrs.

Becca once told me that when the end comes you'll know it.

Currently trapped in my own living room, watching Harry and the Hendersons with my Mother in law and sister in law.

If they wind up making a movie of the week about how this goes down, maybe rally for Ed Norton to play my part, Always felt he was underrated.

The Shuttle to Athens is an easy, painless affair. I've never tried to shuttle back on Sunday, but if you meet a few people and ask around, you should find someone you can hitch a ride with on Sun morning.

Re: Can you pinpoint the moment when you fell completely

After reading in Rolling Stone (?) About the break up of some band I had never heard of called Uncle Tupelo, and about the different directions that the two new bands born from that were taking. In one day, I found Wilco and Son Volt.

Yes, I can pinpoint the moment.
