Slinky,
The holiday season can dampen the spirits of even those who have people that care deeply for them.
But when one is faced with the repeated loss of friends and associates in a short span of time, it can take an accumulative toll. One thing you need to keep in mind is that this is entirely normal. Man was never created to die and losing someone, anyone, should impact us deeply. The more attuned you are to your thoughts and feelings, the worse one can end up feeling when there's a loss.
Your friends have passed on from this world. They've transcended to a different plane, gone on to a better place or merely accepted their eternal reward. Whatever one believes, one escapable fact remains: Their work is now done here, Slinky.
Yours isn't.
So, count me in as a member of your fans whom you can call on when you need help.
That's why we're all here. Yeah, we love women, we love snatch. But you know what else, Slinky? We care about each other. And that's why we've gone to great lengths to try to surreptitiously meet each other and hang out together.
You allowed those great things to happen.
Now, it's our turn to return the favor.
