I agree, times three.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, my friend&#8217;s loss is tragic. She buried her father today with full military honors and she seems to be holding up pretty well considering. I continue to be sad for her and her family, and I would recommend that you should be sad as well. I won&#8217;t go into the rest of the expanding story out of respect for the man and the family&#8217;s privacy.<\/p>\n<p>The original article I posted yesterday has been edited to remove whatever might possibly in some bizarre and overly sensitive world be construed as work-related and potentially unfriendly. As I don&#8217;t run a j-school-approved operation, I get to do that. Considering that I also run a friendly joint around here, I thought I&#8217;d let you know about that too.<\/p>\n<p>As for the deep end? Perhaps I have been a little too candid. But isn&#8217;t the truth&mdash;however obscured to protect identities&mdash;a powerful weapon? I&#8217;ve actually seen that posts here, entries that adhere to my rules of conduct for fairness and accuracy from my particular viewpoint, affect change. More often than not for the better.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m sure that countless individuals have taken a look here and decided that I am a troublemaker with an axe to grind.
