So If you knew you had one day left to live, what is the single most important thing to you that you would want to do with that day? (I make the presumption that you are in reasonably good health so nothing like skydiving, etc. would be off the table) Now not a bucket list, just the one thing at the top of the list.

For me, it would be to just have my family and closest friends at my house for a party to look through old pictures / videos, talk about the good (and bad) memories.  Try to relive those memories, laugh, cry and feel the love of my loved ones and let them know how much they have meant to me and that  it's going to be fine and they should celebrate the life that was, not the death that's impending.  S-

S~ I think you've just described the perfect passing over -- I would not change one iota of your scenario, and would wish the same for myself and all I hold near & dear.

And KK, you are just a pure sweetheart, aren't you? That spirit comes thru in every post & shout...

Not sure if this would count...but I would want a magic wand as well so I could go back to the day my son smiled for the 1st time...he was so tiny and beautiful...I was holding him in my lap making funny noises and then "life mattered"...he smiled so BIG and he has not stopped making me smile ever since. I would want that one day over again...I love you lil buddy.

If I knew it were my last day, I'd want to spend it telling my son and daughter each and every way that I'm proud of them, how much I love them, and make sure they know what an honor and a blessing it's been to be their father. I'd also echo DGSB's statement by asking them to celebrate the amazing, unique life that I was able to lead on my own terms, and to try not to focus on what's lost. After that, should there be any time remaining, I'd like to take a final walk from a dugout across a freshly cut baseball diamond on a warm summer's evening to visit my son on the mound, and then visit the nearest hockey rink and smell the freshly resurfaced ice one last time.

Then, once I'm gone, I want them to bury me upside down and tell my ex-wife that she can kiss my, well, never mind. This was supposed to be a serious thread.....

Oh geeze, you make a girl all teary eyed. There's just something awesome about seeing a man turn to mush talking about his kids. So sweet.

For me, I don't think I'd want to know it was my last day. I'd be too worried about it to enjoy it.

Sitting here in the hospital with my grandma, I've been thinking a lot about end of life. I'm pretty certain this is not the way she'd like her life to end and I hate it for her. But she is not alone, and I believe that is comforting. So I'll say that I just wouldn't want to spend my last day alone.

Before I could only see my last day on earth being spent in a hotel room crying over a bottle of single malt with an empty container of Tylenol in one hand, and a .45 in the other pointed at my head.  Then I found love, it changed everything.  So what would I do all day now?  Let me start by listing the positions I'd put her in....(edited for content)

99, I'll say it again, I'm sooo glad you're back! You just have a knack for putting the world in proper perspective. You also remind me of what it was like growing up w/ 3 younger brothers, and how grateful I am to have had that experience... Also how thankful I am that, now that they're full-grown men of the 6-feet-plus, 200 lb variety, they have apparently forgiven their not-so-big sister for all her getting-them-in-trouble tricks and other assorted bitchery, 'cause a single half-hearted punch from any of 'em would be end-of-transmission for me...

Blue you are too kind doll! I'd hug you if I could! I promise I will wear pants this time! /default_smile.png

 
I would shred everything in my house and office... Just kidding. I would find my first love and spend another day with him and tell him how sorry I was for the hurt I caused back in the 80's. Actually know where he lives and could find him...hmmm...another New Years resolution perhaps?

  4. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Robert Duvall and a handful of others were a younger actors coach and always said no one worked as hard as those guys did. Robert Duvall and rest would read the full script 228 over and over, then after the last read they would go into how to perform their character. The young man had made it to meet Al who are greats and pull them to the side. And explain what his coach said. They all looked back and said out of every role you’ve seen me in. I have read it 228 by myself. 🫡 🫢 🫢 🫢
  5. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Sorry for comment below, but I couldn’t delete. Know I see the
  6. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: Yeah Robert Duvall passing is a hard one. RIP
  7. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Damn. Just heard Robert Duvall passed away Sunday. That’s a tough one. He’s one of my favorite actors. From Lonesome Dove to the Godfather and many others. We will miss you Mr Duvall. You entertained us for 7 decades. RIP
  8. L @ Layne_Cobain: @ClintEastwood make a post about it homie they’re gonna take down your message here cuz shout box isn’t really for talking shop just random shooting the shit exc but yeh just put your message in a post on the forum in the appropriate place and ppl will get at you! 👊 ✌️
  9. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Just wondering if anyone well trusted has a supply of research thienos or benz in powders for good average prices? Or could give a shout out from me to him? Or the best lowest per each? I’ve seen some cool and some i just know are worth it. Good price rv presses too but it is much more bang for your buck. I have one good vendor. But am looking for variety’s well. Send me a message or reply if you think any. Thanks - CLINT E. Any Heavy stuff too which all seem about the ssmmmmmm
  10. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I always thought I should’ve been born in a much earlier time but I will say, i do enjoy my Xbox and occasional TV series tho 😂
  11. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I just wish the opioid epidemic never happened. Fk the turn of the century (which would be cool no doubt)! Many of my friends and family would’ve ended up in asylums like so many others. I just wish I could get back all those I’ve lost since the start
  12. L @ Layne_Cobain: 1914 I meant
  13. L @ Layne_Cobain: I often wish I lived during the turn of the century or at least before the Harrison narcotics act or whatever I think it was 1924 the fun ended but anyway yeh being able to get laudanum, ❄️ and amphetamine at the local friendly pharmacy
  14. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Chew on the leaves with a bit of slaked lime and enjoy the mild boost you get from the raw base.
  15. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I’m sure you know the folks in the mountainous regions along South Americas pacific side buy cócà leaves at the local farmers market just to help acclimate to the higher elevation when they have to head up into the hills.
  16. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I would certainly have bought it, swilled it, enjoyed it…. Why not? A little boost in your juice isn’t going to hurt anyone.
  17. R @ Royboy99: Exports were reported to have around 7.2mg per FL OZ, it’s success is what actually led to Coca Cola
  18. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Having cramps and husband thinks you’re acting hysterical (ie. PMS) the doc would either perform a certain massage to relieve the strains of motherhood and family life of that time or send you down to the local apothecary for a bottle of laudanum… A tincture of alcohol and 10% òpìųm. Fun days huh?
  19. R @ Royboy99: @malestrom: yeah thats it, my bad Mariani, yeah i considered that and also its ROA, which was oral so the bioavailability was lower than insufflation, higher degree of purity tho and longer duration … there was a significant marked increase of patents filed by Edison during the time it was released in the US. Presidents were known to use it as well, and the Queen. The pope awarded the wine the Vatican gold medal award
  20. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I think it was called vin Mariani. But yeah, it was all the rave back in the turn to the 20th century. Original formula Coca Cola did it for a while too. I think it was pretty weak though. Something like 200 mg per liter of wine. Enough to maybe give you a little push but unless you could pound some serious alcohol, it’d be hard to really feel the effects before the ethyl knocked you down on the ground. It was an interesting time period. Laudanum was a “hysterical” woman’s best friend.
