Good morning world

First, unequivocally, death does suck, and so does having to deal with how the survivors handle grief, anger, guilt and all the rest. One of my best friends knows her very ill father will be dead in the next few months (or tomorrow) and she's not handling it well. I try to be a good friend about it all, but the man treated her like crap all her life and now she's already pre-grieving about his passing.

One thing I'm glad about has nothing to do with Geno Smith, who I never even heard of until the news mentioned him this morning. No, it's that nothing happened involving the five living presidents who attended the opening of the Bush Library in Texas yesterday. I wondered if the big fertilizer plant explosion near Waco, Texas last week could have been a way to cover up a massive theft of ingredients needed for a huge bomb. But nothing like that has happened yet, so maybe it was just an accident.

Wishing everyone a BOOM-free day.
