"We do not need any other Tutankhamun's tomb with all its treasures. We need context. We need understanding. We need knowledge of historical events to tie them together. We don't know much. Of course we know a lot, but it is context that's missing, not treasures." - Werner Herzog, in Archaeology, March/April 2011
I'm very very sorry for your loss ip.
People will miss that it once meant something to be Southern or Midwestern. It doesn't mean much now, except for the climate. The question, “Where are you from?” doesn't lead to anything odd or interesting. They live somewhere near a Gap store, and what else do you need to know? - Garrison Keillor
So sorry for your loss IP. We miss you around these parts. I hope you find peace in this difficult time.
A common mistake people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools. -Douglas Adams

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves?
Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here?
Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
From Kelly's Heroes (1970)
Are you sure you're not hurt ?
No. Just some parts wake up faster than others.
Broke parts take a little longer, though.
From Electric Horseman (1979)
My condolences as well, ip. Loss of a parent is tough, no matter the cause. Earlier today I was thinking about losing my dad 15 years ago.
“Death comes when memories of the past exceed the vision for the future.”
I thought I would lose my mom to it 5 years ago. I agree. It sucks. Now its like living with a time-bomb that can go off at anytime. She was dx'd at stage four with it coursing through her lungs, neck, and brain.
I am sorry to hear about your loss IP.

Sorry about your loss, IP. I lost my dadalmost two years ago, but not to cancer. He just wore out.
I have the dubious distinction of being the only member of my family to get cancer, but it was little more than a glancing blow.
