Pete lost an Uncle this week. We're headed for New Hampshire for the funeral etc.. He had open heart surgery and appeared to have come through, but had massive bleeding two days later. He was the proto-typical Main Street Republican, Navy man, short run with IBM, built a small business, raised a couple good kids, and was active in his church. He loved to argue politics, was open-minded, had a libertarian streak, and was at heart a solid conservative. He was a damn fine man who was liberal with his scotch. He and his kind will be sadly missed.
