For those in the know, my father-in-law has been ill in recent weeks, quite seriously so. He had been on the mend, but last night sadly he passed. He had a heart attack; by the time his widow found him, this morning, it was already too late.
I know several of you troubled to offer sympathies and good wishes during his trials, so I feel duty-bound to inform you that they are now over, and he is gone to a better place.
Thank you all for your support.

Sorry to see that, Mojo.
My thoughts are with your family. There's not much more I can offer.

Two songs come to mind for Mrs. Mojo.
This one . . when the pain and sadness clears, remember the more enjoyable moments.
It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday . . boys 2 men
The other one . . well, what can I say, sometimes you do wish you could fly up there and talk to them.

Thanks, all of you.
Thanks to those of you who posted in both places I put this message up. Thanks to piff, who doesn't know me but has impressed me. Thanks to beags, who offered as much as anyone could with typical self-deprecation. Thanks to everybody who took some time and trouble that they absolutely did not need to, just to express sympathy.
People like you are what make the human race worth running.
I intend to get back to running it, just as soon as it obliges me by pronouncing me Global Dictator for Life.

changes that to Global President for Life and I might possibly agree. You certainly couldn't do any worse that those in charge presently.

I certainly could, Peg. Wait until the implementation of my Hopping Laws. Then you'll see.
LOL, beags. Would that be talking crap about myself? Oh, wait, self-deprecation...
... We buried FIL today. It was a beautiful service. Mrs Mojo and I went with his widow and grandchildren to the graveside afterwards. It was exactly how it should have been. As much as one can be under the circumstances, we were pleased.

You're too big for a pony. Go for the full grown horse and ride like the wind.
