Yeah, "John" was a cool old guy--86 years old. He came in
every morning.
The weekend runner told me on Monday, the 10th John hadn't been in and hadn't answered his phone over the weekend.
So I went to check on him and found him semi conscious in his favorite chair with his 3 lil dogs. I doubt he had moved all weekend.
Cell phone battery was dead and he was out of minutes too.
Took him to the ER and they kept him over night.
But he refused to stay there basically saying he just wanted to go home with no heroic measures, etc.
And that's what he did....passing away on the 23rd
And I'll probably go the same way. I have an "advanced directive".
Take care of yourself Jay!

Those are some great pictures. I especially like the last two - great resolution and color contrast.
Sorry for the loss of your friend.

Thanks Bill
I guess I need a new monitor. Often as not my images look crappy on this one--not sharp as I think they should be.
Maybe it's because they are scaled down from original size? Frustrating.
Yeah, it was sad about my friend "John". I met him the first week I worked for the casino group back in January of 2003.
He liked playing golf and I played with him back in 2003 and '04 a few times before his COPD got too bad for him to play.
