Random Thoughts 17: Here we go again.

[Donqluione]

In reply to Boxster's NDY I went to work and a guy I work with died last wk. The boss thinks maybe heart attack. So in the last month 2 friends had strokes and another dude had a heart attack. SOB I don't know if I should try to get in better shape or just get a better life insurance policy.

It happens more frequently as you have more birthdays, so I've stopped having them

Went to a show just titled ABBA. This is what we got.

At in-laws Christmas, this is painful.

We were in HyVee a few days ago getting our nacho supplies for last night, and were chatting with one of the managers. Mentioned we hadn't seen one of them much since Covid took off, and wondered if he had moved to another store.

No. He died of a heart attack two years ago. He was at least 10 years younger than us.

Kevin was amazing. That was awfully surprising.

He was I miss shooting the breeze with him, it’s just not the same.

All of this sudden death talk has got me rethinking my earlier post to @NWICY telling him to not buy life insurance. I now think he should but with the RTT gang as the beneficiaries! We could promise to throw him a hell of a Cyclone Frantic wake and hot tub party at KC's. Gonna be a BIG wake but we can put what's left in a college fund for Z and maybe still have enough for the rest of us to go to Mexico and party some more. All in favor?

Assuming the forthcoming unanimous approval, I nominate @cowgirl836 as the policy executor for NWICY. She's young and smart with mad spreadsheet skills so would do a great job. Plus she'd smack down @wxman1 and his likely request to buy a RTT airplane. Request denied!

He obviously means the release date was closer to the end of WWII than the release date is from 2023. Made me look, date was 1983.

Cyclone Frantic? I prefer Cyclone Fantastic.

I stole this one from some old spoof video that had CW and Jon Miller characters in it.

Both 100% truths. And why I should probably just use CF.

Which I have to be careful using, due to the two military sons and THEIR definition of CF.

Wife put on the rose bowl parade. Hannah Storm is one of the hosts. She has had enough work done that it appears she can't even open her eyes all the way.

Just saw her - how can she even see?!

New Snapchat pic this morning - grandson age 6 just “lost” his first tooth. Top big one on his right. I thought the bottom ones usually came out first.

CP, Cluster Poopie!

Reminds me of hearing some really bad news on a contract award from our contracting peeps first thing one Monday morning. I actually replied "Oh, poop.". Contracting officer, recently retired army, popped her head above the cubicle wall and asked "Did you just say oh poop?" Laughed and told her I'd spent time with grandnephews and family over the weekend and still had my language filter on. She had been totally expecting some F-bombs.

Not sure if I hate them, but the Tmobile ones with the scrubs dudes kinda creeps me out with all the cosmetic surgery and coifing those two guys have.
