Entropy. Entry 2.

Entwined with the yin of birth we celebrate in the post below is the yang of death, the second unavoidable after passage through the first. Our lives are like the ripples from a pebble dropped in a pond, radiating outward, reflecting back off those things with which we interact, until entropy redistributes the energy evenly... and our little patch of the universe is quiescent again.My heart always skips a beat when I open my email and something like this is a header...Make a hole at Fiddler's GreenSo it was yesterday morning. I'm used to these coming from relative strangers, or, as some internet-widow/ers call them,...

May BCR's family remember the good times he gave them, and we will always be greatful for the gifts he gave his country.

He and his family will be in my prayers.

He sounds like a wonderful man... And of course he was, as he gave us a wonderful daughter we are blessed to know.

Rest in peace,sir.

My father was a ground-pounder during that war. I'm sure he appreciated the Big Friends overhead.

All my sympathies, BC, and God bless him for his service, and the great job he did of raising you.

What AFSis is referring to is my father's participation in a "Mangeant", to raise money for school playground equipment. He was "Miss November". For those who are a glutton for punishment, the clip is here. "Miss November"'s swimsuit competition is at 1:05.

We laugh a lot in my family.

*sigh*

How can you not love a man who can dance around in a skirt for charity? Seeing him with that paintbrush and... boxers on his head??... made me laugh. I hope that your memories will always make you smile and laugh when you think about your Dad, BCR. I'm so sorry for your loss.

There's a crowd at the bar who'll welcome him, despite his fondness for piston-engined aircraft -- including three friends who never flew fling-wings with turbines...
