News and Blues
There's an excellent new column by Regina Brett in today's Cleveland Plain Dealer. I encourage you to click here to check it out: Sex Offenders Lose More Rights Under New Ohio Law. I also posted it as a bulletin on both of my MySpace pages: Jesus Crisis and City Buddha.
I don't feel much like writing. My wife came home early last night with the news that her mother, who has not been conscious in several days, probably had about 48 hours to live. She's a tough lady, but her liver's been failing for some time. You know, most guys complain about their mothers-in-law. But I've been very lucky in that regard. Rose is the best mother-in-law a man could hope for - and a damned fine mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother to boot. We are very close to her and love her very much.
Here's a picture I took in December 2004, featuring (from left to right) Geri, our grandaughter Vanessa, daughter Jamie and my mother-in-law Rosemary:

Thanks, Kathy. We've been expecting it to some degree for some time now... but part of us never really wanted to believe it was going to come to this so soon.

Mother Dwarf who lived with me for 16 years was my friend and artistic collaborator as well as my birth mother. her dying almost three years ago was sad and hard - but, it was easier than her living and suffering more would have been.
sometimes moving on is best.
