Ah, son tells me the screen is smashed so whoever found it couldn't read the texts or answer it.
Simon: I, uh... I never-never shot anyone before. Book: I was there, son. I'm fair sure you haven't shot anyone yet.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
he couldn't start the car.
Is there not an alternate method?

He had my car because it has the dog hammock in it. I do have key cards, but he didn't have one with him. We are accustomed to using the phone for access. Now that I think of it I probably could have started it remotely for him with my phone app. Didn't think of that! eta: I know I can do a bunch of stuff remotely, like advance the song on the radio just to mess with him.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Oof, Kate Middleton has cancer. Apparently the surgery was to remove a tumor and she's now undergoing chemo. The fact that it was operable is encouraging. I wonder if it was colon cancer like Jacqueline.

It does sound like that, David. I listened to her statement. Sending the ~ma her way. It is a lot for her small children to see their mom go through surgery and chemo.

My uncle was recently diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer. This cancer thing is bullshit.
I'm still amazed at how much the royal family's publicity machine fucked this up. It would have been far, far better to stick to their story (which was pretty much true) and not run around trying to head off conspiracy theories.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Sorry about your uncle, Dana.
I was thinking it was fibroids or similar which is often major surgery but then the end of it.

I'm sorry that your uncle has this diagnosis, Dana.
The speculation now seems to be uterine or cervical found after surgery.

I was thinking maybe it was ulcerative colitis and she had to have a big chunk of intestines removed and maybe an ostomy bag. But wow.

My good friend had uterine cancer that was discovered due to fibroid surgery. In her case a much quicker resolution.
Still agog at how terribly they’ve managed all this, and how shitty a person Wills is proving to be. But a ton of empathy to Kate and the kids.
We’re kind of reeling in my family today due to the terrorist attack in Moscow. My brother-in-law Sergei was at the concert and happened to leave about 10 minutes ahead of the attack.
And in a separate post: she does not have the time to check the board these days, but I wanted to let you all know that Nilly's eldest will have his Bar Mitzvah soon. He'll be reading Book of Esther this Sunday/Monday.
It's an extra joy to bring good news to this board, after announcing mostly bad news in the past six months.
1000% what I needed to hear today. Mazel Tov!
