Thanks again one and all. My Dad won't go anywhere,
even for a free meal. He will not even go out to
family gatherings any more. They (Mom and Dad)
have given me info (verbally) about what they want
and don't want, where the keys are to everything,
various records, who should get what "stuff" etc.
That's about it.
Re. the Zipper and Cut-Throat remarks, yes I can see the
irony also, except my father is just stubborn and
hassle averse, whereas I truly believe I am smarter
than just about everyone else. This is a critical difference
In my case, galloping egomania, in his just old age
and intransigence.
A brief segue into Zipper's earlier comment about
my "Ayn Rand crap" coming home to roost. I saw on
the nightly news quite a few "blue state" folks are
moving to Canada or at least considering it. I am happy
to see them go and hope they are happy with their new homes. Here is the key for Zipper and others who
like to point out the People's Repuiblic of Canada advantages in health care
and social services. For someone with my politics,
living in Canada would be unthinkable. Bottom line:
in spite of the terrible tumult and trouble which may lie ahead, I would rather deal with it myself right here than live
under a government like Canada's. Sometimes I can barely stand it here. Canada would be impossible. Why, the gun laws alone would rule it out for me.
