The Other Dead Dave

[ashekenaz]

Another icon of my youth gone. It has reached my ears that David Eddings died on the second, age 77.

A glass will be raised, as is usual, in memory of a man who co-created a whole bunch of books I still think helped me cope with school.

rRest in peace, and I hope you're with Leigh, wherever you are, David.

I think it might be beer o'clock tonight

[ashekenaz]

Cool. Lunch today is 11:45am-12:45, I finish at 5:45pm. Set the time.

have to check with boys (big) about the plans for boys (little) and figure out who I'm feeding so I can do menu; pub, or bottle of wine in the garden?

[ashekenaz]

Both have their own issues. Pub has the advantage of not being at home, and beer variety. Garden has the advantage of, well, less travel for you.
