Love and Loss in One Instant

Paraphrasing,
"You took your lives, as lovers often do.
But I could've told you, lovers,
This world was never meant for
those as beautiful as you."
heart/tip Don McLean

Heh...good one,Jim. We can dream,eh?

Well, half the dream is now reality.

Now, if you will all please clear a spot at the railing for the Dowager Empress of Chippequa, so that she might become more permanently acquainted with the concept of "gravitas"?

Thank. You.
