Thanks - mitigating the closeness of the events was they both being well into their eighties and, by that time; very seriously decaying qualities of life.
The permanence is the only part I can never get used to - no way to fix it - anything which wasn't done cannot be done. In my mind, however, I was quite ready. They were, too.

She was a much better writer than actress, and in "Wishful Drinking" (a book that left me with laughter-induced hypoxia) she offered the typically mordant observation that she knew exactly which photos and film clips would be used by the media to announce her demise.

Is that tough to figure out?

If you survive mustard gas and pepper spray, are you a seasoned veteran?

Being saucy now, are we?
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Tempting as it may be to mustard gas and pepper spray the relatives on Christmas day, particularly if they insist on playing Monopoly, it's generally regarded as a poor idea.

It may be a poor idea, if you do not consider the alternatives.

Not necessarily - that usually takes some thyme.

They might be seasoned but you can't just a-salt people without doing thyme. You'll be in the police ar-chive dill the end of your days. Just be anise person. This is sage advice to avoid all that saffron

Suffering the after effect of a bottle of Spanish Brandy I found laying around the house.

Some VX-SOP stuff?
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I don't know much about this stuff. It said something about Jerez and had an (imitation) wax seal just below the neck of the bottle.
I'm almost certain this is it: Cardenal Mendoza Brandy de Jerez Solera Gran Reserva[^]
Is this considered any good?

I've no idea whether it's a good brandy. However, judging by the reported results, it is reasonably lethal to brain cells.
(VX-SOP is a portmanteau made from VX gas and VSOP)

Apparently, not lethal to brain cells.
They did, however, go on an outing. They returned this morning, quite rested and refreshed. At least until The Lounge . . .

This article makes yet another compelling case for the value of reading other people's code. So, for those of you who agree with the sentiment (as I do -- at least in theory), found anything good lately that you'd like to share?
I'll go first: I've been spelunking through some of the CSharp portions of .NET Core (formerly on CodePlex, but now on GitHub.)
