We have little graphics to insert in obits in the newspaper like a flag, cross, star of David (aka Hebrew throwing star). There’s a teddy bear for kids’ obits. I asked a co-worker “What kind of Care Bear is this one? Death Bear or Grim Reap…Oh, wait, I know! Pall Bear!”
Many lols ensued.
Fun meme at Twitter: #rejectedmissionnames Not sure why the Pentagon insists on giving fancy names to dropping bombs on people, for better or for worse. Operation Odyssey Dawn just makes me think of “Hot Shots” and Operation Sleepy Weasel.

Dear (old) friends’ parents,
You can stop with the dying now, okay? Really making me nervous about my own parents of the same age (though they’re in good shape).
Thanks,
