How Sad a Passage

COUNTESS "This young gentlewoman had a father,--O, that 'had'! how sad a passage 'tis!--whose skill was almost as great as his honesty; had it stretched so far, would have made nature immortal, and death should have play for lack of work." -Act I scene i, All's Well that Ends Well.

Guts for the Adventure

Contract signed with Spiropoulos tonight, after Symposium disputes on the nature of a bet.  He likes the look of Cow Ledge Road, even if he doesn't understand the full intent behind the purchase.  The idea of a place as a retirement one, to house memories more substantially than possible in a condo, is a welcome one, and adds to the mix.  Try as I might, I cannot see the rationale for a purchase pre-Bark, so we have to trust in the fact that no one else will emerge in the off-peak.  Money rides on it!  But the stakes for purchase post-Bark have been raised anew by the challenge to the ability to take the leap.  It echoes conversations with Jen, about the lack of follow-through.  And her comment about knowing it when you see it.  I just might, you know.

Sad day as well, with the loss of Gord.  Speaking of memories.  And writing.  A true inspiration.  So many lines to quote, I will simply leave it.  You know what they are, and will keep hearing them for as long as you have ears.  Hey man, thanks.
