I understand the sentiment, and you are not wrong.

At one time, I probably would have agreed without reservation, but I have learned Values Clarification has never been a reliable measure as someone will up the ante (hold my beer).

Rick Oakley made the hard decisions.

The final analysis will be from The Judge whom we will all face.

I was going to add an element about that very topic but thought it best to keep it about the human interactions

But they are not making the 'hard' decisions.

There is a special place reserved for them.

I liked this one...You really are a talented writer. Very impressive how you are able to fabricate worlds and depth quickly.

Thanks. I’ve been at the game a long time. Still takes a lot of effort but I think I’ve found a groove

Goodness, Jimmy!

You've been batting them out of the park almost daily now.

Every day, a completely random story that just hits home.

Totally real. Totally believable.

Phenomenal.
