This afternoon I sat with several of my clients and was thoroughly entertained. Trying to repair a very tough email printing problem in the background of this conversation was a hoot! It was mentioned that God had placed me there at that time for a reason. The discussion started out about the removal of a tech device from one fellow's chest and the letter that was developed by the device recipient that initiated said removal. They talked about writing their potential obituaries because the newspapers had a way of messing them up. Then I was shown a piece for Farley the dog (from the comic strip "For Better or Worse") that they had published in the local paper. There was a list of names, including a kewl dog that I now know, honoring the memory of Farley. Now, I realize this might not translate ROFLMAO on this page, but they were cracking me up! I left, then 'googled' for famous obituaries, last words and observations. Some people are just downright funny to the very end. Hope I go with a smile and an astute observation.
