Me thinks it started dark and never improved although adding the Dilbert was a nice touch.

Dilbert went dark - darker - back around 2016, and never really recovered.

I heard Adams interviewed by Sam Harris in early 2017. I have refused to look at Dilbert since then. He may be clever and know software dev politics, but he's belongs in a looney bin. (imo)

It was a pretty tough week. Got in a car accident, a guy hit me and then drove away. Then the house next door caught on fire. It is 15 feet away from mine. The firemen did put out the fire and save not only my house but the whole block.

That's what they say, but, unfortunately, there's no way to validate it.

Quote: So always look on the bright side of death
A just before you draw your terminal breath
Life's a piece of sh*t
When you look at it
Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true
You'll see it's all a show
Keep 'em laughin' as you go
Just remember that the last laugh is on you

I was just thinking of a message I saw the other day "Mary had a little lamb" (between a sandwich). I am not sure where this fits in.

I've just been through three years of lung cancer surgeries and treatments (chemotherapy, etc.). I didn't expect to survive, but I have. I thought about death nearly every day. I made peace with dying. A lot of the people in the chemo clinics were in their last days and headed to hospice.
The one takeaway from the experience was this: Don't waste time. Death will visit you eventually, so prepare yourself. Then spend every other minute living. Work on that bucket list early in your life when you are healthy and can enjoy it.
Peace out.

I sincerely wish you continued success. You are the only person to reply with a serious answer to my question.
I lost my father to lymphoma, so secondhand I know what you have been through.

oh thanks for reminding, need to check up on my death clock The Death Clock - When Am I Going To Die?
Friday, April 5, 2041
ok, so I survive 2038, aim to retire before this as don't want the hassle, sooo either I don't retire and die from the stree of fixing for 3 years, or that when some critical program finally trips up on unix time problem, interesting

I consider myself lucky to not be a character in Game of Thrones. My swordplay sucks. Like really, really bad. I'd last less than half an episode.
Other than that, I don't worry about things that are beyond my control. Like the timing and manner.

When I die, I'd prefer to go like my grandfather did: peacefully in my sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

As I don't think there will be any takers I'll post this a bit early
Strike ? maybe a mad jazz fan ? (7)
A type of strike is a Wildcat (unplanned)
Mad = Wild
Jazz fan = cat

Another good clue as far as I'm concerned - since I once again solved it!  It took me around 15 minutes or thereabouts today. I eventually came up with "cool cat" as a jazz fan. From there the solution came pretty quickly.
Good thing I solved it now. The upcoming turkey coma could be a detriment.

Well, I got nothin'.
May be my brain isn't fully functional yet though ...

Speaking of "strike", maybe everyone in the UK has sent their answer in via Royal Mail.

Or a train.
Or possibly a nurse is hand delivering it?
