I know things are hard, but there will be happier times for you on the other side
I thought this was going to be another thread about packer rats

speaking of packerrats, I find myself 50% less likely to click a thread if the most recent post is by woodbuck.

I thought Harlan was dying and he was going to live blog it here for our enjoyment. Really, it's the only thing he has left to give, but what a beautiful give it could be.

A part of me has died. Perhaps I will have some poems to share.

Death Watch, lyrics by Tank Elf Duke, copyright 2009
Drink her blood one last time
You will miss the taste of silver lime
Crawl into a concrete hole
Let the ants eat you whole
You will not be missed
You will not persist
Your god is a fucking blade
God has deserted your crusade
Dip a needle deep inside
Don't be afraid to set this world aside
Spread your wings, swim in the rain
The high will wash away your pain
Fly away from this place
Find a home in outerspace
And if you're still seduced by misery
You can always fall back to me

Death Watch is official: last night, first time ever, someone asked me if I was over 50 - and eligible for Sr. discount. The End is near.

Go to sleep you weary hobo
Let the towns drift slowly by
Can't you hear the steel rails hummin'?
That's the hobo's lullaby
I know the police cause you trouble
They cause trouble everywhere
But when you die and go to Heaven
There'll be no policemen there

Deportee By Woody Guthrie
The crops are all in and the peaches are rotting,
The oranges are packed in their creosote dump;
They're flying 'em back to that Mexican border
To spend all their money to wade back again
Goodbye to my Juan, goodbye, Rosalita,
Adios mis amigos, Jesus y Maria;
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane,
All they will call you will be "deportee"
Some of us are illegal, and some are not wanted,
Our work contract's out and we have to move on;
Six hundred miles to that Mexican border,
They chase us like outlaws, like rustlers, like thieves.
Goodbye to my Juan, goodbye, Rosalita,
Adios mis amigos, Jesus y Maria;
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane,
All they will call you will be "deportee"
The sky plane caught fire over Los Gatos Canyon,
A fireball of lightning, and shook all our hills,
Who are all these friends, all scattered like dry leaves?
The radio says, "They are just deportees"
Goodbye to my Juan, goodbye, Rosalita,
Adios mis amigos, Jesus y Maria;
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane,
All they will call you will be "deportee"
My father's own father, he waded that river,
They took all the money he made in his life;
My brothers and sisters come working the fruit trees,
And they rode the truck till they took down and died.
We died in your hills, we died in your deserts,
We died in your valleys and died on your plains.
We died 'neath your trees and we died in your bushes,
Both sides of the river, we died just the same.
Is this the best way we can grow our big orchards?
Is this the best way we can grow our good fruit?
To fall like dry leaves to rot on my topsoil
And be called by no name except "deportees"?

And thus the romantic image of the Mexican criminal was created and lives on today.
LOL @ We died in your bushes. Yeah because someone shot your ass when you were peeping in the windows looking to rape some innocent young white teenager you fucking pervert.

Forgive the rough translation for the modern era. My how things have changed.
The trains keep a rollin and the borders are open,
The jobs are all planned, our economy a dump;
They're flying 'em from that Mexican border
To spend all our money and flood all our schools
Goodbye to my Rights, goodbye, 401k,
Adios mis amigos, Reason y Liberty;
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane,
All they will call you will be "citizen"
All of us are illegal, and most are not worthy,
Our work contract's out but we don't have to move on;
Six hundred miles to that Mexican border,
They welcome us like princes, like nobles, like kings.
Goodbye to my Rights, goodbye, 401k,
Adios mis amigos, Reason y Liberty;
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane,
All they will call you will be "citizen"
The sky plane caught fire over the Detroit suburbs,
A fireball of lightning, and shook all our hills,
Who are all these thugs, terrorists and dick-fiends?
The radio says, "They are model citizens"
Goodbye to my Rights, goodbye, 401k,
Adios mis amigos, Reason y Liberty;
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane,
All they will call you will be "citizen"
My father's own father, he waded that river,
They took all the money he made in his life;
My brothers and sisters now have to do nothing,
We ride in the truck and don't bother lie.
We live in your hotels, we eat on your dollar,
We learn in your schools and fly on your planes.
We sneak 'neath your trees and we sneak in your bushes,
Both sides of the river, we lie just the same.
This is the best way we can grow our big budgets!
This is the best way we can grow our government!
To fly cross the nation like seeds and pollen
And be called by no name cept "citizenry"?

What do yall think of the recent attempt to provide a mathematical refutation of the possibility of black holes forming and its implications for the black hole information loss conundrum? Could black holes emerge (that's not the right term, but what is?) from something other than a dying star?
