The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Now I think those for whom there is nothing more important than their culture wars, political opinions and agendas, they can only find that soooo important as they are not aware that their life's will end. Yes, they are aware of that in their brain, analytical, cold and distant --- but not in their stomach.

I think we have older folk here and some are aware I'm sure. I got diagnosed with HPV16+ cancer in my tonsil last year and had to adjust my calculation. Males in my family seem to die ~78 and from heart disease, but the last two years has cognitive decline and the last year bedridden. So good to 76. I was supposed to be Stage 1, and if lymph nodes weren't invaded I could get by with surgery alone. But the cancer was twice as large as they thought, and though lymph nodes were clear, there was perinueral invasion. So with 4.5 good years left do I do the radiation or not? Judgment call.
