garyrc Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Looking death in the face, even at a distance, even concerning someone we didn't know, stirs anxiety nonetheless. Anxiety casts about for relief, in humor, attack, grief and depression. We need to resolve, again, to make our lives count, as John did.. From Dunne: Any man's death diminishes me ... Therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T2K Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I watched a bit of 'Mama Called' on PBS earlier tonight and learned something that I had never heard before. Upon his death an inspirational poem was found in Paul 'Bear' Bryant's wallet. It was given to him by a motivational speaker from Texas, Heartsill Wilson. Here it is. “This is the beginning of a new day. God has given me this day to use as I will. I can waste it or use it for good. What I do today is very important because I am exchanging a day of my life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever, leaving something in its place I have traded for it. I want it to be gain, not loss — good, not evil. Success, not failure in order that I shall not forget the price I paid for it.” 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all have common ground and honestly our passion for audio and horns should overcome anything we have no control over which in a round about way includes political views or judgement. Cute.

Jeff Matthews Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Sure, the thread has hints of politics in it since McCain was a notable politician. Nonetheless, it's not that hard to bite your tongue and let people express their grief or condolences. The following (to paraphrase this thread) is not proper decorum: Quote Me: My uncle died. I'm sad. You: Your uncle was a turd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
