April 19, 201115 yr comment_442609 That's awful. I don't know what else to say, other than my thoughts are with you Report
April 19, 201115 yr comment_442620 Sorry to hear Al. No word yet about Todd's wife. Nothing I can say to make things better, but I certainly hope that you can find some sort of financial help from the state(I know, these are the one's responsible for the layoffs in the first place). Report
April 20, 201115 yr comment_442638 Dammit, Al. I'm really sorry to hear that. I hope you find some good news eventually. Sometimes doors open, but not until others are fully closed. I hope that turns out to be the case for you two. Report

April 20, 201115 yr comment_442658 Sorry to hear about the layoff, but we'll pray things get better for you. I got fitted for my dental crown on the new implant from last month, and after paying for half of that I spent another $250 on the two pets vet visits and shots. Then went to another art show tonight for my son's photography, but he didn't win a ribbon this time. It was a city-wide competition instead of just our school district alone. Now watching TopShot with my son. Report

April 20, 201115 yr comment_442746 Sorry to hear about this Al, I hope you two find a way through this mess. Our thoughts are with you. Well this is a really a "past 24 hours, what did you do" post. I just completed a whirlwind visit to Arizona to attend my aunt's funeral which I organized and financed since none of the other relatives could find the time to attend. Had a business meeting, business sushi lunch, and another meeting to review a project there in AZ. Sadly once my Mother passed away last November, my aunt's sister, companion and best friend was gone and it seems my aunt gave up the will to live. I am probably the only person on HC that has three hospitals, two funeral homes and three hospice care facilities on their phone contacts list---makes me a fun guy to be around I am sure. I flew Southwest Airline each way since it is the most convenient to Burbank airport but for some strange reason the whole flight I kept staring at the ceiling to make sure everything remained in place and that this piece of equipment did not come with the sun roof option. On the return flight to Burbank I am not sure if we had a hard landing or we were shot down but I now know what a carrier landing in an F18 is like. Edited April 20, 201115 yr by Augsburger Report

April 20, 201115 yr comment_442754 Pizza party sounds perfect! Sorry about the financial woes, Al, and I hope things turn around faster than you think. Greg, you are a walking party! But honestly, sorry for your loss, and don't fly Southwest anymore. Report

April 20, 201115 yr comment_442817 Sorry to hear the bad news Al and Greg. Sending good vibes your way. Spent another nice day by the pool, got a massage, now heading to dinner. Decided not to go to my 20th High School reunion. Report

April 21, 201115 yr comment_442825 Al, as others have said, it sucks. Al, I feel for you. I've been there a couple times before and it's real scary. Since my family and many friends are still back in Michigan, I keep hearing this same thing about so many good folks I know. Sending good thoughts your way. Drunk and happy with the wife. Report
