    Thank you, trying to sort out who and who is not a moderator is a bit of a challenge. I was offered some assistance in that regard but I don't recall if you were listed. I think registering under my own name and e mail is best. I would love for his registration to remain so I can read some of...

    Excellent, I don't think I have fucked up my registration, but it is quite possible I have. Will have to remember how to edit my AV; it's been a while since I have been in a Forum and I haven't slept well for the past 10 years so my nodes might not be primed enough to accomplish it but we shall...

    Gravy liked peanut oil for frying it's a good neutral with a decent smoke point. If you want flavor you add it at the end like with butter or a good olive oil drizzle or how about some spices. We liked the Kalamata olive oil for the flavor but not for frying. We got it at Trader Joe's, they...

    It was heart problems, I think people assume if you are on hospice it has to be cancer...it doesn't. To quote our favorite cardiologist from that day - Nov 9 (who I have to call yet, just can't do it, Dr.Greg Botteron - awesome fucking EP if anyone ever needs one) - "I can't do any more, your...

    I apparently have handed out too much reputation - like being the best house on the block at Halloween, with the full size Snickers bars. As a Chiefs fan, I know how difficult it must be for you to wear the AV. Thank you for taking one for my G man.

    Well, most of him is heading for the earth in the cemetery in which I played as a child (the land adjoins my parents' land). Out of his love for me, we chose a place that is a happy one for me; the cemetery grounds also backs into woods where I still hike and in the Springtime, mushroom hunt...

    I understand from whence you come, Olebass. Please know if there is any information about cardiac care or insurance issues or SSD, I am a surprising wealth of knowledge and will be happy to assist you. Know too that Hospice was a god-send and the dignity of him dying at home in his own space in...

    For some reason, I could not give you rep for that so you get a raucous and somewhat coarse HAHAHAHA instead. Gravy always told me to remember that all men are pigs, so that bombardment would not be much of a surprise. I do appreciate the caveat though. Glad they have enough respect for him...

    I am uncertain. His loss is fresh and I need to be connected to him as much as possible; this may be one of the places I do that for a while so I may actually register under my own name - Mrs. Gravy of course. Are you certain people with ovaries are allowed? Also, it is my understanding that I...

    I never get this completely right even though he's told me many times (sometimes I don't listen very well). It was from a former place of employment and they had some type of sales competition and his team name was GravyMix. He liked it so he just kept the Gravy part...sometimes he would call...

    Make it a single malt...the night we met, he had the group of us (after we closed the bar) back to his place. He offered me a drink and among the choices - he had single malt scotch. It surprised the hell out of me - a poor college student with single malt scotch. I was easily impressed, what...

    OK, that was the second big laugh I had today - thanks for that! As a note to you - we were married for over 25 years; I am keenly aware of the amount, type and variety of pornography he viewed. He has always been honest with me about most of it but also a dying man shares a lot of stuff...

    I know (about many of you assuming his cultural heritage) - we laughed often about it. I still laugh thinking about it; I don't know what he posted to lead one's thinking in that direction but I would bet a few of you questioned your deductive reasoning abilities upon discovery of the truth. No...

    58 is good, too. DT is an all-time great. So today was two months past the day I was supposed to die on the table. Actually feeling kind of shitty at the moment, been having a hard time catching my breath. As long as I'm hanging on, I'd be surprised if at least one person doesn't think...

    I miss the old days when I really liked Pittsburgh. It was probably a function of what games got shown back in the 70's: Steelers, Cowboys, Redskins, and a smattering of other games thrown in. Today's Steelers just don't seem to have the same toughness or tenacity. Rocky Blier, Franco...

    I'm cool with anyone picking the Texans, hell that's why they play the games. But your reasoning is suspect, especially considering the Chiefs lost Jamaal Charles before any of those games. I think the teams are pretty evenly matched and wouldn't be surprised by whoever won the game.

    I like these picks, although I'd rather see the Bengals win, and I really think the game in Minnesota is a wash. It's really going to tell who is coming ready to play. My everything hurts just thinking about how cold it's going to be.

    If the Chiefs make it the second round, I'd consider the season a success. Actually, I already have, since they were 1-5 at one point.
