I like most music, with over 3,000 albums in my collection (digital) from classical to heavy metal/grunge, even like a little country & a heap of current popmusic.

2016 Memorial Done & Dusted

by steve2 in

well on this side of the planet, the southern hemisphere/ new zealand, the 2016 memorial service in local kingdom halls will be over for another year.

another great big anticlimax.

some family and relatives will have gone - but unless i ask my sister, i generally have no idea about attendance and partaker numbers.

I received a paper invite from a middle aged chap in a suit & tie on a very hot day, didn't have much to say, just, would you like one of these?

I asked, what is it? all he said "an invite to a special occasion"

I took it, knowing what it was, he went, and the piece of paper went straight to the recycle bin.

Hell i don't even know what night it was, someone tell me, I was most likely working

FIRST AID Please bear in mind that this is for EMERGENCIES ONLY

What's classed as an emergency? a child with a cut finger, yeah I would take it to first aid.

A head ache, why not.

Their program would cause one huge head ache let them help LOL

Sorry for going off topic, just something I found at the end of the DC program

RIP Keith

Loved your music esp 'Fanfare To A Common Man' a cover of the same-titled orchestral piece by Aaron Copland

This is from Wikipedia:

In September 2010, Emerson released a message stating: "During a routine medical examination, a colonoscopy revealed a rather dangerous polyp in my lower colon. It is the conclusion of the doctors here in London that I must undergo surgery immediately. Unfortunately, the timing of this urgent surgery does not allow me to start touring in early October because of the required period of hospitalization and recuperation. I must remain optimistic that all will turn out well".[21]

Emerson died on 10 March 2016 in Santa Monica, California of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head.[22]

kudos to jwn roving correspondent sd-7 for his insightful comments in a recent thread.

as a result of his inspired utterance, i received a flash of insight that has allowed me to predict with uncanny accuracy the exact date for armageddon's arrival.

what follows are sd-7's comments and my calculations.

The new date is: November 17, 2021

This was revealed to me as I watched 23 ducks wadely along at the park today, and confirmed in a tea leaf reading at afternoon tea.
