Re: Is your house in order?

Sorry for your loss, Xen. We've talked about our plans a lot, so we know what we want, but my wife and I both agree that we've got to get it written down. The biggest thing is that we don't want to leave anything to chance (i. e. the courts). Thanks, Schmo, I appreciate that. I think talking throug...

Re: Is your house in order?

Jersey Girl, I appreciate you being so willing to share your personal stuff here. It is obvious that you've clearly got a great grasp of the work to be done, even if some of the details are yet to be ironed out. Anyway, it wasn't all that a complicated because I was the only one making decisions. I ...

Re: Is your house in order?

Hi X-Man So sorry to hear of your loss. Xeno I'm so sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. It doesn't matter how old we are, the death of our parents is a loss like no other.

Re: Is your house in order?

I am with you on this. My SO's very close and very young sibling passed suddenly, and there was nothing in place. Making such urgent decisions while grieving the loss is overwhelmingly difficult. That is awful and I'm very sorry for your and your SO's loss. As I've brought up my own issues and pers...

Is your house in order?

I'm on the tail end of cleaning up the estate for my father and in simplest terms, it was an absolute cluster-fudge. His passing was not completely out of the blue but certainly much sooner than any of us really expected. I love him dearly, but my father was not a man of planning or discipline, and ...

Re: Beastie and argument for horses in the Book of Mormon.

Happy to oblige, beastie was always one of my favorite posters here. A sharp mind, quick wit, and as you point out, very good at cutting to the most basic elements of the problem at hand.

Re: Beastie and argument for horses in the Book of Mormon.

Not sure if there was another site but http://www.mormonmesoamerica.com was the beastie site I was most familiar with and the one in her sig line. It is no longer in service now but you can use the wayback machine to see some archived versions of it that may have what you are looking for: https://we...

Re: The Last Of Us

Really good thoughts, honor, and I find myself agreeing with a lot of them. I'm roughly 10 years out from my playthrough but another element I thought was missing through the whole journey was the allusion that the Fireflies are not the "good guys" and they also clearly don't really know what they a...

Re: March 10, 2023 - The Next Black Date in Economics?

Thanks for posting, honor. I haven't really commented on it as I don't think I know enough to make anything other than surface level remarks. As a weird aside I have a business acquaintance that was impacted by the SVB closure. I don't have a ton of specifics but apparently, they were the only bank ...
