I suppose some of you are wondering where I’ve been the past couple of days. Thursday night, my Grandpa passed away, and consequently I didn’t go to work on Friday. It came as a bit of a shock, because he seemed to be recovering from his surgery really well, but then a couple of things went wrong, and he passed away.

The funeral is tomorrow, so I won’t be writing then either, just so you know. My mom wrote up a nice obituary, which will be appearing in the Star Phoenix, likely tomorrow. I’ll try to cut and paste it onto this site at any rate.

I don’t feel much like talking about coffee machines today, sorry, you’ll have to wait for the info on that for another day.

Simpson’s quote of the day: “When I first heard that Marge was joining the police academy, I thought it would be fun and zany, like that movie Spaceballs. But instead it was dark and disturbing. Like that movie — Police Academy.” - Homer
