You did good. Blinky would be proud I think, and he was blessed to have
you for a dear friend. I miss (chatting with) him and his humor, too.
Pizza, beer, and darts is a good send-off. I did not know he was a
darts fan - steel or plastic tip I wonder <G>. Knowing Blinky the short
time I did, I'd guess steel tips
