To be honest, BTF, that day is coming soon. My father is 95.5 years old and I'm not sure we'll have him much longer. He's slowing.

Posting on this board in an absurd and light-hearted manner has provided me a form of therapy (to an extent) related to my mentally dealing with the inevitable.

I appreciate our exchanges on this board. You're good people.

Cherish him as long as you can.

I was 50 when my dad passed away. Almost 30 years ago now. And now my wife is gone. My time is coming. One reason I'm out here seeing what I can and enjoying life while I can.

It would be a joyous moment if you and my father could meeting in person one day and talk Tiger football and basketball.

I trust you continue to have a stellar time, T-A.

Thanks, Bill, very kind of you. I would love to be able to do that sometime.
