They have already ganged up on the wife. Just upset her worse than I ever saw her for weeks.

So long as it's a MyPillow, can't die at the hands of those other heathens.

I'd have to put an exclusion for three day holidays. You know how those long weekends can be.

I'll go back to being a conservative, when conservatives go back to being conservative.

I have no idea what  you're talking about.  :lol: 

I have two of his pillows. They came with a mattress topper we got a few years back. It's also kinda junk but it isn't as bad as those worthless pillows.   

I gave one of the pillows to my cat to use as a cat bed.

My mom died suddenly and my dad was lucid up until about a week before he died. My mom's sudden death was quite traumatic for me, but I didn't have years of pain and heartache to go through.

This is similar to my experience. Both my parents went suddenly and were self sufficient before their deaths.

My parents have both been gone 32 years.
