As many of you know my Dad (Logical) has been in the hospital since January. He has been fighting a bunch of different problems, and it looked like he was going to beat it, and make it home. Unfortunately, in the past week things took a real turn for the worse. It is my understanding that he has at most two weeks left, but from what I can see myself, it probably won't be that long.
I know he really valued this board and a lot of the people on it. I wanted you all to know that he may of been a person that liked to stir things up, but he is one of the most caring people that this world has ever had to offer. He helped raise my sisters and I to be strong, loving, and intelligent people.
In these past few months, he has again found the Lord, and I strongly believe it is simply God calling him home. Please remember him for the good times, and do not judge him to harshly for the times he gave any of you heck.
He is my father, and a great man.
Thank You,
James
Update: My father passed away this morning at 7:30 am (pst). For the most part it was peaceful, my sisters and I were there with him to last second. He will be missed.
My sister read him many of your replies, and she told me he really enjoyed it. Thank you for all your kind words. [Reply]
Titanman...prayers go out to you and your family. Jim was a good man who while not always agreeing with me, always showed respect. May God be with your family in this time of sorrow.

Yeah. "Logical and Buster's Dad's" just doesn't have the same ring to it. [Reply]
Got the pic added to the header rotation, so you'll see it every once in a while (or you can preview it here). Stevie mentioned sending a few others my way, so hopefully I'll be able to cook one up that looks a little better. It's hard to fit stuff in that narrow frame! [Reply]
