@mutanttoad That's a plus. Mosquitoes herald their approach unlike sneaky blackflies. Although I always remember how one Mosquito will disturb sleep.!

My old dog used to disappear every day while I was at work. When I finally discovered where he’d been going all that time, I had to sit down on the church steps just to take it in. I didn’t know any of that when I buried him. Back then, my world had shrunk to something simpler. Murphy passed away on a Tuesday morning, his head resting in my lap, my hand under that soft white patch on his throat that had grown silky with age. After he was gone, the house felt wrong — too quiet without the sound of his nails tapping along the hallway. I was seventy-four, a widower, partly retired, and naïve enough to think I could lay him to rest quietly in a town where everyone knew my name, even if they didn’t know much else about me. So I handled it the way I thought best — no fuss. I put up a few notices. One outside Miller’s Hardware, another at the diner, and one at First Baptist, because churches still seem to spread news faster than anything else around here. I wrote it carefully: Burial for Murphy Boone. Saturday, 10 a.m. Back field behind the church. Friends welcome. I figured a handful of people might show up. My neighbor, maybe the mailman, possibly Pastor Ellis if he felt up to it. Six people, maybe ten if the weather cooperated. But by 9:45, cars had already started filling the gravel road behind the church. Pickups, sedans, even a school bus driver still in uniform. Nurses in scrubs. Teenagers I didn’t recognize. A man from the diner. Neighbors I barely knew. Kids holding flowers. Adults clutching dog treats like they meant something more. By ten o’clock, there were over four hundred people there. Four hundred. For my dog. I took off my cap and lowered myself onto the church steps because my legs suddenly didn’t feel steady anymore. That’s when it hit me. Murphy hadn’t just been living one life. While I thought he was napping in the yard or chasing squirrels behind the feed store, he had been showing up for people. Quietly. Faithfully. Day after day. And somehow, he had made himself part of their lives too. That day, as I looked out at the crowd — at all those people who had come to say goodbye — I realized something I hadn’t understood before. A good dog doesn’t wait for permission to matter. They just go out into the world… and do it anyway. And somehow, they leave behind more love than one person could ever hold alone.

Céline Dion performing the mythical song and soundtrack of the movie Titanic "My Heart Will Go On" live. I don't know how she can sing the whole song without crying.

@BigWave372 It’s not his decision to make. It should be his wife’s decision. I’m glad to hear she’s in remission. I would imagine, though, that not everyone’s cancer would react the same to the treatment this lady received, or have the money for what it would cost ?

A Canadian man is going viral for refusing to accept Canadian healthcare’s only option for his wife’s stage four ovarian cancer, medical assisted dying, choosing instead to flee to the United States for treatment, where doctors began immediate care, leading to near total remission.

I would love to own one today. Hear me out: Victims of government weaponization undergo high-powered microwave attacks from satellites, cell towers and weapons located in tunnels 1/4 of a mile below cities. Our experts estimate that just one inch of water absorbs 70% of the microwaves. I would ignore the tackiness if it meant a better sleep...

Name the song Well, the names have all changed Since you hung around But those dreams have remained And they've turned around Who'd have thought they'd lead you (Who'd have thought they'd lead you) Back here where we need you (Back here where we need you)
