            Oof.
            Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                Dodged this thread for 58 years by flip of a coin.
                That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

                              That's big trouble at 92.

                              EDIT: From what I've read on MSN, he had shortness of breath, and he's been in the hospital since Saturday. They also said he's responding well to treatment and they expect him to go home in a couple days. :shrug:

                              Either way, this is probably part of the slow descent down for him.

                              EDIT #2: I think I just read the same article you just did.

                                My Mom is that age. Every day is part of the decent. Though I suppose one can say that for all of us past about 18.
