+1 on hoping y'all are well.

I caught a 5 minute thing on NPR today about that teacher. They were doing a few minutes each on all the victims that they knew about. She sounded like a really well loved person. Such as shame.

She was engaged and her fiance survived. He said some words (it may have been from a video posted on his facebook or something) and I was amazed at his strength and grace considering what he is going through.

High stakes video poker? Something about that just makes it seem like that was a cover for something more nefarious. Perhaps washing money? Maybe I've seen one too many gangster movies.

I just found my old todo list spreadsheet on google sheets. One tab is "gramps wisdom" from when he was coaching me at SNGs.

That's the impression I'm getting as well, at least a decent % of the range. This extended interview with is brother was interesting. Obviously his younger brother has all sorts of crazy emotions running through, and is a bit socially awkward (like us internet poker players). He seems to talk about w/qualifications the gambling, money made, retirement for Mom (but not too good, her money too), etc.

New blog post is up for my drive to South America: http://ushuaiaorbust.com/2017/11/08/preparations/

2p2 thread: https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/9...-year-1664900/

I still have a lot to figure out wrt to dates, but it's coming together. I should leave some time around the end of the year - say hi to Gramps in TJ. xPeru I will probably see in March some time. Invitation is still open for co-pilots along the way.
