"We are all dead men on leave." Eugene Levine

The Internet, which has information on just about everything, now has the date of my death.


Looks like I'll be done on Friday, May 16, 2036.


Hmm, it looks like the same week as grandpa died.


Hope it's a beautiful spring morning.


Check out your big day, here.

  2. Well, I don't think I'm going to put a lot of stock in this! Everytime I would go back to check - just for fun - without changing any of the data, it gave me a new date. Obviously doesn't know any better than I do. But it does give me about 40 more years. Not sure I want a dozen years or so of being senile. Anyway, I have to go see the Dr. for the results of my cholesterol tomorrow. Maybe I should just live it up for the next 30 years and forget watching those good old lipids!

    Randall. I just got back from a vacation. I stayed with a couple in Calgary, Herb and Cathy Serviss. When I mentioned that you were the pastor in PA, Cathy said, "Is that the grandson of John D." And I said, "yes". She said, "That was a great man, he was the Billy Graham of ...(some place I can't remember)" Thought you'd like to here a good word about your family. She was glad to here that you were a pastor.

  6. Thanks Steve, that was cool.



    When I was in college I found that in many of the churches the the school tour groups traveled to, they would know my Grandpa. More often than not, he had effected their spiritual life as well.



    It was always good to have that connection. To know that the family rep. was a good and blessed one.



    It still gets me into doors and homes that might otherwise be closed.

  7. Well, Johanna, you should stop smoking and drinking. And you're only 7 years younger than me.

  8. To get on the "death date band wagon", the first time I tried told me I'll be 102!!! The next time I'll be 80 and then 90....so I'll quit and go for a "mean age" of between 60 and 120....that should work.....
