Sorry to be a downer. But a very good friend and coworker of mine passed peacefully in her sleep last night. She was 48 with 3 kids and a great husband. She was a joy to be around and told you what she thought. You always knew where you stood.
With some advice she bought her first egg a few months ago and already pulled off a great brisket at Thanksgiving. On Tuesday we had lunch and planned to get the families together between Christmas and new years for an egg showdown. She was lurking here but had not joined despite me pushing her to officially join. Enjoy it my friends cause we don't know when it's our time.
RIP Joella!!!

@ksmyrl very sorry to learn of your friends passing.
You are right, none of us know how much time we have left. Best to enjoy every minute. They are all blessings.They don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don’t want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that. That doesn’t help them. That's against their interests. - George Carlin -
