    just got back from the wake of a former coworker. he had a year long battle with cancer and he unfortunately lost. he was 34. leaves behind a beautiful wife, an older brother, and his mom and dad, and one grandparent. he was one of the nicest people i have ever met, and he fought this thing harder than anybody i have ever seen fight.. it always seems that the people this kind of thing happens to happens at a young age to the best of people. it is very troubling to me that the good die young while assholes seem to live forever. rip joel.

    I am so sorry for your loss. My brother died at 41 and my sister died in September, at 54, from pancreatic cancer. Had a stroke, two months, and gone. Crazy. Yet there are people I know who don't seem to suffer any illness or loss and they do nothing to make this world a better place by any means. I don't wish disease, loss, death on anyone - but it does seem unfair; so i empathize with your feelings. The pain doesn't go away, it just changes with time. You will always have your memories which sustain you. =((

    White Castles, no ketchup, extra pickles. 15 minutes tops. =P~ [-X

    You can't do that too me.... Im sitting here at work and my mouth is watering over the thought of white castles...

    Got tickets to attend the taping of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver for this Sunday!!!!

    I get a hankering for White Castles couple times a year. I fought the crave this time, not a couple months ago though. Not the same experience as back in the day at 3am for some reason. :-/ ;;) .

    Enjoy the show - He did such a great job filling in for Stewart and now he has his own show. Well deserved. I love dry wit.

    Ice, I never have enough ice!

    I get a craving every couple months, but it usually takes a couple months of disgust to build up that craving haha. The traditional White Castles after Pearl Jam concert though never gets old. B-)

    It is POURING rain and has been all day. My back yard looks like a lake and the street in front like a river. There was so much flooding on the highways it took me 1 1/2 hours to get home what normally takes 10 minutes. 8-|
