      Do you ever wonder how you will die or when it will happen? I was thinking about that several days ago, and decided I don't care, as long as it is quick.

            Me thinks it started dark and never improved although adding the Dilbert was a nice touch.

                      I was just thinking of a message I saw the other day "Mary had a little lamb" (between a sandwich). I am not sure where this fits in.

                            And the obligatory death joke… I want to die peacefully in my sleep like my grandfather. Nor screaming and crying like his passengers.

                            If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

                                It was a pretty tough week. Got in a car accident, a guy hit me and then drove away. Then the house next door caught on fire. It is 15 feet away from mine. The firemen did put out the fire and save not only my house but the whole block.

                                  I've just been through three years of lung cancer surgeries and treatments (chemotherapy, etc.). I didn't expect to survive, but I have. I thought about death nearly every day. I made peace with dying. A lot of the people in the chemo clinics were in their last days and headed to hospice. The one takeaway from the experience was this: Don't waste time. Death will visit you eventually, so prepare yourself. Then spend every other minute living. Work on that bucket list early in your life when you are healthy and can enjoy it. Peace out.

                                      I heard Adams interviewed by Sam Harris in early 2017. I have refused to look at Dilbert since then. He may be clever and know software dev politics, but he's belongs in a looney bin. (imo)

                                        I consider myself lucky to not be a character in Game of Thrones. My swordplay sucks. Like really, really bad. I'd last less than half an episode. Other than that, I don't worry about things that are beyond my control. Like the timing and manner.
