About Me
- Isonomist
- On February 8 2007 my 22 year old son Jesse died after a ten day coma, due to complications from APL leukemia. He and his younger brother had just lost their dad in January 2003, just a few months after Jesse had started college. Jesse's first round with leukemia was in July-August 2004. He recovered in time to push himself through University of Michigan on time, with good grades, chemo and all. This time, we weren't so lucky.
My daughter and I howled as we looked at the pictures and read the story!! What a cool thing.

Words of wisdom there.
It's a cross-generational hoot, ain't it?! One of the "agents" in the improv everywhere group turns out to be on my team here at work, I had no idea till I saw his name on the list (he seems very quiet and shy at work, except for the occasional wisecrack). He also works with Upright Citizens Brigade, which is our favorite comedy club. We're going to try to get into his next show.
ReplyDeleteYou have a young man of the highest quality. You knew that, of course. It was my privilege to make his acquaintance.

I'm going to be in NYC for about 10 days in April/May.
ReplyDeleteWe're going to The Ring at the Met.
Maybe we could have coffee somewhere?
art: Sounds awesome. You're going to see the whole thing?!
ReplyDeleteI'll be out of town for a wedding at the end of May, otherwise I don't think I'm booked yet!
Lector: thanks bro. That was a heck of a trip. Wouldn't mind doing another one.
