Inspector Koo now in my top 3 Kdramas ever
Vincenzo and Hotel del Luna are the other 2
Really enjoying Inspector Koo
Lots of Comedy and thrills
A Korean Columbo in a mac maybe, but far far prettier even when scruffy
My Tinnitus is screaming right now so I may suddenly stop
It took 2 hours today for the screaming to stop in the morning
Now I'm being screamed at again
So don't talk to me, as it subsides
Tinnitus is a deadly disease so be patience with folks with it
It drives some right around the bend
Yes I know what you are thinking, he's there already
You are so cruel
Anyway also saw Coco, a Disney cartoon, dia del muertos and all that
Your A level students in your house should relax with a film night
All work and no play makes Jack a Dull boy and all that
Ching Ming is what they call it in China
And I was at my father in laws grave in Shanghai years ago
With writing in Chinese on it, apart from son in laws name
michaelgcasey in English on a Chinese gravestone far far away
So if ever you are there and see michaelgcasey on that gravestone
Then say a prayer and leave rose petals in my father in laws memory
so I'll finish for today, an Inspector Calls, which is another
A Level text by the way, or so I believe

The Dead and The Living
The Dead and The Living (c)
by
Michael Casey
I first saw a deceased when I was nine years old ,my father said not
to worry as the dead are the same as the living , only the laughter
has left them , the sparkle has gone from their eyes , the worry has
been lifted from their shoulders , and their voice has vanished to
eternity .
In paradise the sparkle will return for it is the twinkle of the
stars , the laughter will return too for it is the morning breeze and
the turning tides are their sides shaking with laughter .
I treat the deceased with the same courtesy as I give to the living,
though I find the deceased are always more polite . My father also
had a few words to say about the living .
He said that the living are only the caretakers of the soul , yet
they think their existence is everything , that they know everything
because they experience many things with their senses .
What the living don't acknowledge is that their time is short and
when I lay their bodies to rest then their souls continue without
them , without their strong , without their weak , without their
beautiful or even ugly temporary form , to where I cannot say , only
that it is a better place .
Percy the undertaker placed the lid on the coffin ,the soul was free
THE BEGINNING
