Last night, at a Christmas Eve party at a relative's house, as the children were running around, and the young people in their 30s were talking about their jobs, I sat comfortably sipping my Egg Nog.
I just couldn't help but think of memories, and thinking the same thing,....pretty soon, that's all that will be left.
It's a mixture of sad, yet thankful, at the same time.[/QUOTE]
Very prophetic. And truly sad.

ruxvette, His words almost give the impression that he might just have had a feeling that his days on Earth were coming to an end. While he and I shared some interesting conversations at the "bar", I always felt that he would have been someone I would be proud to call "my friend" had we lived close by. I will miss his humor and honest opinions on many subjects. Condolences to his family.

I agree. I made the comment some time ago about trying to do a meet and greet in a centralized spot to gather the "regulars". I am sad it never happened.

The drinks are not 2 fr 1, or 50% off,...they are free!
They hve a movie theater style popcorn machine, littl hors derves, and as many free drinks as ya want for 1 whole hour.
I'm actullly sitting here using their Wi-Fiii, aand my tabbel and know I'm totallly toasted.

I took some photos of thhe hotel, but I cant upload them now, just too f*%ked up.
I'll post up somephotos when I getback hoome.
This is relly not like me, but its fun!

Reading all the replies shows what kind of guy David was, as he carved a special spot in the hearts of all of us. This place will not be the same without him.

Spudsy just PM'd me the news, truly a sad day for all of us. While I never met him, it was always enjoyable to read his quick wit and banter with all of us. Godspeed Hammy, we will miss you.
