I'm at McD's having lunch (imagine that!), and have discovered that the men's room is under construction, and is closed.
Ummmm.....This could be a problem....

I think the current color looks great on you! I can understand wanting to grow it out to see the natural color, though. Many times a person's natural grey doesn't look so swell, but sometimes it does. You never know until you try....
Gary, it certainly sounds like he was a very special friend. It sucks to have to lose someone special, especially at such a young age. Cherish your memories of him, and he'll be alive as long as you are.
I was just kidding about you spoiling James. Yes, you spoil him in some ways, but you do all of the important stuff, too. And, after all, your vindication is in the young man you are raising. He sounds like a great kid, and much of that is to his parents' credit....

Does RLK have a candidate for wife presumptive, or is this future plans? Please do be sure to share pictures when it happens.
I spoil James with attention and doing things for him mostly and he probably has more stuff than kids his age but my buddy would have bought him everything he doesn't have.
He owned a sushi bar/Japanese restaurant and pretty much worked himself to death.
I would go in after teaching and kick him out of his own restaurant a couple days a week so he would take time off. I was the only one he trusted to treat his customers like he would. I wouldn't take any money so he would give me things every once in a while. Like a really, nice putter for golf that I would never spend that kind of money on. A sushi knife that cost like $3000.00 twenty years ago (it's still in it's box; never used). My favorite sushi knife that also never sees any use is the one he used at the restaurant. His parents gave it to me when he passed away. I had it mounted and framed with a pic of him using it.
It really sucks that he passed away so young.
I started feeding the birds again this week. It's enjoyable. Yesterday I was standing next to the feeder and a downy woodpecker lands on it about 2 feet away from me. He was so focused on sunflower seeds he didn't notice me at first.
Saw something yesterday. In Mexico they speak of 3 deaths:
The first is when you become aware you will eventually die.
The second is when you die.
The third is when your name is spoken for the last time.

My hummingbirds are year round. I now have 6 feeders hung around my house. Even with that many feeders they still battle over them. They are very entertaining.
I have lots of house sparrows and finches I feed. This year a pair of doves have been hanging around. Last spring one day I watched them visit 4 of my hanging plants looking for a nesting site. I got all excited and quickly built a nesting box and hung it over my garage door. They didn’t move in but I’m hoping next spring they do.
Al Pachino said this in a movie once, “you die twice; on the day your heart stops beating and again when the last person you knew speaks your name for the last time.” That line REALLY got to me.
You don't get any scrub jays bullying all the other birds away?
Have you seen Coco? The final death is when you are finally forgotten on earth.

Yes! That’s a good movie.Have you seen Coco? The final death is when you are finally forgotten on earth.
You only see those out in the desert here. In the local mountains you find the Stellar Jay. Those are my fav.
What do you eat there?
I think the only thing I could have with my dietary restrictions is water, diet soda and salad if I don't use their dressing.
We have both here. Used to be scrub jays only when I was a kid, but now we see Steller's jays, too. I love them. I remember standing on the back deck of my great aunt and uncle's cabin in Wrightwood throwing peanuts out into the back - it was a race to see if the Steller's jays or the squirrels would get to each peanut first. I can still remember my great uncle laughing every time...great fun.
