{{{Teppy and Tim}}} I'm so sorry for your loss. Much love to both of you.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.
My condolences to you and Tim, Steph.
Toddson, at least they don't have automatic doors that can malfunction once people are closed in the restroom?

Matt, there are times when I have problems getting out of the building (you need to press "Lobby" to get the elevator to get out and, sometimes, I get "Access Denied" ... but I have alternatives.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I'm sorry, Steph. It's so hard.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Tim's doing pretty well today, although he apparently didn't fall asleep until 6:30 a.m. and got up before 11 a.m., so "pretty well" is relative. I was up until 4 a.m. and got up at 10 a.m. and deeply resent being awake.
Tim and his brothers are going to the funeral home shortly to plan shit. I personally don't think it's a good idea with Covid to have a visitation. I think a funeral Mass is basically fine, as long as there's no gathering afterwards. However, that is my opinion, and I have no idea what Tim and his brothers are going to plan.
