Default Toasting Bob

D cooked tonight: Sichuan string beans with ground pork. It was
delicious.

As the dish neared completion, I uncorked a bottle of wine and poured
a glass for each of us. At 7 p.m. here in Cow Hill, two people whose
lives were touched by Bob Pastorio raised their glasses and called his
name.

He deserved better wine.

No, seriously...

Very nice, Mike. It's not 7PM here yet, but when the time comes,
I'll find something appropriate. I was kind of intimidated by Bob,
he had such a large range of interests. But although he didn't
suffer fools lightly, he was a nice guy. I'll miss him...

Alas, the wine SO and I toasted him with was rather one-dimensional.
However, we wished him bon appetit and happy trails.

I took a moment out at 7 pm from my food preparation (whatever possessed
me to boil four dozen eggs for devilled eggs?) to raise a brewski on high.
I also broke into the Easter candy early. Except for our Alaska (do we
have any?) and Hawaiian RFC'ers, Pacific Time is the last to check in -
unless the Aussies want to do it again!!

I'll probably cry tomorrow, and pull myself together in time to get a few
hundred people caffienated and festively fed after Easter service.

Last I checked in another group he was in, a couple of his pet kooks were
still foaming away about him. Bob is still kickin' ass from the beyond.
I'm sure he's having a GOOD laugh about it. I know I am!

(no "But seriously" about it!)
