“Forever in our hearts.
Until we meet again.
Cherished memories.
Known as.
Our son, brother.
Father, Papa, Uncle.
Friend & cousin,” reads the headstone, which marks Steven Owens’ grave at Powers-Warren Cemetery in Runnells, Iowa, which is about 20 miles southeast of Des Moines.
So what kind of no good shithead is even looking for this? Probably someone that needs to be told to “FUCK OFF”.
Hmm… Here lies old bones, Sam Gilpens once. Walter de la Mare.
Or, “As I once was So you are now. As I am Now soon you will be.”
UPWARDLY BOUND, TO THE
PROMISED LAND
YOU WERE A TREMENDOUS FRIEND
OMNIPRESENT ALWAYS
UNCORRUPTED BY THE WORLD
RATIONAL AND THOUGHTFUL
SENSIBLE AND CHARITABLE

Folks, this is the best weight-loss program of all time.
Learning to live and love
Enriches the honest man
And he comes to
Value experiences of
Every peaceful kind.
Mirth is a shield against
Evil temptations
And influences,
Leaving one free to fly
On softly sighing wings,
Never to suffer
Earth’s indignities.
Pardon me for not getting up.

Can you shed any light on those 10,000 cows that died in Kansas. Has it been over 100 degrees out there? Seems pretty weird. Does Bill Gates own that feed lot?

Yep Brad, 105 last Monday. !00+ for the next 5 days, but I’m thinking that cow death toll goes back to the fires about a month or so ago….10,000 acres just north of me and 20,000 acres a bit farther south and east….A local farmer/rancher has to replace over 50 miles of fencing and cross fencing. They’ve hired 5 crews that will work for a couple of months. Their herd was decimated….tough way to smoke a brisket or 500 briskets…..One guy that burned during a burn ban was responsible. Rumor has it he will do some prison time and be bankrupt forever….

Thanks for the 411. That info is not making the news.
The rare entry from Tanggor! Hope you are well man good to see you still lurking around here.

(sniff)… That was beautiful… Truly a man after my own heart… (sob!)… He’ll be missed, even if the feeling is clearly not mutual.
“Here lies the body of Prunella Smith
For her, Life held no terrors.
Born a virgin, died a virgin
No hits, no runs, no errors.”
I want the cheesy kid joke put on my tombstone, “What did the elephant say to the naked man? That’s cute but how do you breathe thru it”, just so people who walk by my tombstone would get a good laugh. But I doubt that they would approve it. My oldest daughter thinks this is one of the stupidest dad jokes ever. And if it was in a graveyard full of dead Pentecostals, I’d like to have on my tombstone, “Why don’t cannibals like Pentecostals? Because they keep throwing up their hands.”
On the hole, I’d rather be in Philadelphia.

Who, much too soon in the month of June,
Took off his winter flannels.
