Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, click this link (fngt.gq). That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask theBuddha, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then you can donate.

Yeah, it's a part of getting old I suppose... The longer you live, the more people you outlive.

Ugh... It's the holiday season too. I really don't want to fly to Colorado for a funeral. I don't want to drive, either. Well, it'd be a fun drive and you haven't have funeral without 'fun'!

But, I don't have the time to do all that.

Are you going to go?

Maybe. They don't have an exact date for anything. I knew he was ill but nobody had contacted me in a while, so I figured they were otherwise engaged.

I'm not terribly close with the family. We've met a few times. I just got off the phone, again, with the widow. She was hinting that their savings were low due to the medical bills and that a funeral might be too expensive. I suspect they'd like a few bucks but don't know how to ask.

So, instead of going it may make more sense to just send 'em enough money to cover funeral expenses. I had Biff on another call getting some flowers sent.

I don't mind that. It's cheaper than chartering a plane, paying for lodging, and then flying back.

That would probably be a huge blessing for them at the moment
