I was able to make arrangements to be buried at the Mountain Home National
Cemetery here in Johnson City but as soon as I can, I want to get funeral
insurance.  Not a pleasant thought but, God forbid, if I pass away before my
parents do, I want to try to make it as easy as I can on them.

It's good to have all of that planned out.  I need to update my will since I
moved and I'd like to add specifics on who gets my computers, takes over the
BBS, amateur radio equipment, and whatnot.  Since I don't own any real
property, it's a bit easier for me.

Like Red Green says, "If women don't find you attractive, at least let them
find you handy."

That would be horrible.
