Later today I will be giving a talk at #DebConf23

I haven't yet finished my slides, so I'm not quite what's going to happen. Guess we'll find out together unless planet earth gets recycled/hit by a big ass meteor - I **am** praying for rain.

By all that is decent, cover her face.
Let not Death with vacant eyes, slack mouth displace
her sun-dappled figure laughing down boreens
flashing puckish wit, simple elegance and grace.

Death Cleaning
The Swedish term "döstädning" means 'death cleaning'. Before you prepare the swabs and disinfectant, it is more about the graceful art of decluttering the house...before someone else needs to do it. Death Cleaning is proposed for all those 65 years and above. but why not start earlier? This isn't a long weekend but a guided time of going through each room and discerning

After tabloid television broke the news of #JohnOlsen’s death, I could myself humming the @chas’s #Eulogy song. Then I was asked to write an analysis of his career for @theconversationau …

Strange! I experienced an immersive dream-like piece of theatre #eulogy and was assigned the character Charcot (out of 20 names from psychiatry etc). Came out and started wandering round the City centre in a fugue state, walked into a bookshop and the first book I picked up fell open on this page about Charcot and people wandering around cities in fugue states!

#Eulogy of the #ant. When I was little I liked small #things. In the long #summer hours, I spent in that remote #village on the #AmalfiCoast, in the company of #Granny Vincenza, I remember many of those little "things" which, in modern times and terms, have been defined as «minimalistic childhood experiences» ...

Jimmy Carter asked him to deliver his eulogy, Biden says - CNNPolitics

https://www.cnn.com/2023/03/14/politics/jimmy-carter-eulogy-biden/index.html

Most decent people will always love Carter as a caring decent human being as well as president. Sure, he had mistakes. But who doesn't?

Even with the modern day dirty politics by the Republicans, Biden is a decent person. So, it is fitting.

went to a #funeral today.

the #eulogy was a lie, completely unrecognisable as the person who had died.

what do you think of #funerals?

Album Review: Eulogy – Rebirth

There must be something in the water in South Wales now. Mere weeks after neighbours King Kraken dropped their ferocious debut, Cardiff quartet Eulogy follow their lead with Rebirth, their own debut release and it matches the high standards one would expect from a band who reached the finals of the South Wales M2TM 2022 competition.

#February 1, 1865
#OTD Henry Luke Bolley, American #Botanist & #Plant #Pathologist, is born.

Fun Fact: Henry helped start #Purdue #Football & played quarterback. He also started the #Botany dept. & the football program at #NDSU.

Dubbed the "Savior of the #Flax Crop," Henry fought #Plant diseases & created disease-resistant #Plants.

In his 1956 #Eulogy, Harlow Walster said,

"Henry was a fearless trailblazer who cut deep & lasting blazes in the #Forest of #Ignorance about plant diseases."

Oh damn. Speak on it! #RevAlSharpton #Eulogy #JusticeForTyre

I wrote this #eulogy for my cousin Rick who died suddenly a short while ago. He was as confident in being #gay as I was not. In my youth, he intimidated me because of this unknown secret we both carried. In those days, being gay was not discussed or admitted to among #family members, let alone society at large.

Single Review: Eulogy – Pain is Mine

South Wales four-piece Eulogy had a good year in 2022. They reached the final of the Metal to the Masses competition, increased their gigs and profile and welcomed drummer Josh Bird into the fold. Bird’s arrival along with the band's expansion to a four-piece with the arrival of guitarist Brian Perkins gave the band a bigger sou

Sadly, I sometimes feel that most of my words in 2022 have been eulogies, obituaries, and death announcements. I'm really looking forward to 2023.

I don't know if this would be of interest of anyone on this platform, but maybe. My mother's funeral is tonight, and I'm delivering the eulogy. The service will be broadcast online here, 7PM tonight:

This will be my third Christmas without my beloved grandfather, a loss that left a hero-sized hole in my life. After he passed in 2020 at the age of 97, I wrote the following as a bit of a eulogy, shared now in recognition of all of us who are approaching the holidays through the filter of grief.

How to cure a common cold for a fraction of the cost of $44 Billion! And I didn't even need to become a hall monitor to achieve this feat!
