Where can I buy my ticket for the "kick-off"?
No tickets necessary. As to dad's wishes, we are actually having a
huge party for him Saturday. Not quite "Weekend at Bernies" but close.
Might even be some dancing...
Can I bring a guest?
You may..
Will you be serving "shrimp"?
More than likely. Mormon women do two things well, cook and have
babies. The Relief Society just brought us a huge Ham dinner..
Is there a dress code? I'd hope you would tell them not to wear Clan
colors.
No dress code, But dad will be in all white prepared in his "Temple
Pack"..
Can I bring Harry as my guest?
Absolutely, I expect to shake hands with a lot of folks I don't really
care for. But this is for dad...
Will there be activities like plinking with 45's or even 50's?
I don't know what that means, but there will be music and such.
Don't worry, I'll bring my own equipment.
??
Will Kleenex be mandatory for the ones that cry?
Probably..
Is there a height restriction (seeing as your a short little ****er)?
No, and no gut check either so even you can come.
Will there be a Motocross exhibit. Your Daughter could jump a 4 rail
fence, then wipe out and break her arm...
Jessi just took away second place in the championship series last
weekend, she will be racing Saturday.
We can watch you try to perform donuts on her bike, but I don't think
your feet touch the ground.
They do, if you ever want to try to make a lap on our home track, let
me know. I would love to watch you cry... er, uh, again...
Will I be able to drape the Canadian Flag over the casket while
singing "I'll be Seeing You"?
He would probably love it as to his Canadian roots, but most of us are
putting toys and such in the casket for him already, like we did for
my mom... Even left her a napkin, she probably made something
beautiful out of it...
Are you going to install a remote camera to watch the demise?
No, me and my doggie were there with him when he went. It was decades
ago I asked my dad to make sure I was there with him to see his last
breath, and I was..
Are you putting it on You-Tube?
No
What FOOD will be served?...that you don't have any involvement
with.....
All of it..
And lastly.....
Don't point out your "neat" friends from here, the smell will alert
me.
Ahhh, Grey Flannel... Mom loved it too..
Really though, this was somewhat of in incoherent rant, even for
you...
Rowdy Mouse Racing, sad day for us all...
Well done.
Yeah, Dad would have loved it. snerk He got a kick out of how
sarcastic I could get...
One day I was in the garage working and he was working out in the
stretch center I built for him. These two salesmen came down the
driveway and started in on some pitch. I looked at the guy and said,
"You have ten seconds to perk my curiosity or you have to leave"... I do
this to throw them off the pitch and get right to the meat. The guy
started to stutter for a second and then started asking me another
question, I said "9"... he got frustrated and said, "we are selling
windows and siding". I told the guy I wasn't interested in them and sent
him on his way, muttering all the way up the driveway... Poor guy. My
dad laughed his ass off... It was cool having him around...
Rowdy Mouse Racing, just because you walked away, doesn't mean it didn't
hurt...

Dad loves his family, and he was a soldier. He wanted us all to remember
that...
