It was sad watching my brother's gears start to slip and his world get 
smaller. After a minor accident with a lathe his wife put the kabosh on 
his woodworking. He was quite good and would sell items at the farmer's 
markets and so forth. He didn't need the money and probably lost money but 
he enjoyed it. Then she made him park the RV. Next was the car. He liked 
to hike in the hills around Vandenberg but after a couple of incidents 
getting lost that was out and he was limited to walking around the block. 
No crossing streets. Towards the end he wouldn't eat and just wanted to 
check out but she kept him alive.

If I start down that path I hope I can still remember how to run a .45 -- 
and do it right. Gotta go for the medulla oblongata, not the stuff that 
isn't strictly necessary.
