(thanks, CartoonsIntros!) 

Given his condition, this wasn’t completely unexpected, but it’s still a nice kick in the head on a too-hot Tuesday night. I’ll be back in a couple of days (or perhaps sooner for a general update). For some goofy reason, I thought of this old Hanna-Barbera cartoon when I got the news. I’ve got two brothers and a sister, but I guess this is how that part of my brain kicked in its own contribution to those rare moments when it was just the two of us (and no Snagglepuss to muck things up, but somehow, this was the episode that popped into my head. Um, thanks, brain?!):

(thanks, Yledion!) 

Off for a few days to take care of a ton of stuff (and probably literally, given what’s in storage). I may post a quick update if I get a few moments to spare, but we’ll see. Time for the grief gougers to do their stuff, I guess…
