All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
She is, indeed, in Chicago but is waitlisted for the already overbooked last flight out. She'll know in the next half hour if she's flying out tonight or not.
I'm back and ready to run out to O'Hare if she needs me.
I watched North By Northwest earlier
I watched that last night!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Maybe we can have a virtual wake.
We pick a time. We all log on. We all have a drink and tell stories. We chip in and buy a goat or something from Oxfam in his name.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I like that idea, Trudy.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I'm down for the wake. Better get some good single malt for the man.
Fuck. I named him Weremonkey. (I think I did, anyway.)
I remember when he delurked, at the bar with his laptop and his friends and the Scotch drinking. (Can we Nilly up his first post?) And the kites. And his son with the WHO. Irish Traveler and Somali - Not a man you meet every day, as the Pogues put it.
Here's to you, Gus. We'll do you proper on the 17th.
