Last post April 24 2018.  Maybe he just got too angry about the mozilla

A few months ago I searched for him, his wife Candy and their Australian 
Shepherd breeding business in Louisiana, probably N'Yawlins.  Just old 
stuff.  Nothing within a couple of years. He was active in 2014, a few 
posts in 2015, and "I'm really not dead" on 10/8/2017.  I guess he was 
wrong.

My husband hasn't a clue about all my internet 'connections'.  I've left 
a password text file on my computer, but I bet he doesn't remember its 
obscure name.  If he pulled up thunderbird he could easily figure out 
what groups I post into and the people I correspond with, but there's 
that IF thing...

The internet has permitted us to grieve for total strangers who really 
aren't strangers.

At least I won't go from COVID (knock wood).  Second shot Thursday, 8 
hours of ache/chills/fever Friday and that seems to be it.
