My mother in law is a British citizen so this is a bigger deal in my family than it would be for most Americans. I am curious about the geopolitical ramifications.

Re: September 2022 Obituaries
Should be a big deal to most everyone. As has been uttered thousands of times today already, she was a stabilizing force for millions around the globe, no doubt due to her calm and steady demeanor. As for geopolitical ramifications, there will be many words tossed about, but little change I would imagine. King Charles will have his hands full. Mummy was a tough and formidable cookie, but he appears to be a little soft. We'll see what happens now that he has been thrown into the cauldron. BTW, Her Majesty was 96, not 94.

Not to hijack the thread too much but Charles isn't as well liked or respected in his own country let alone globally as his mother so it will definitely be interesting to see what happens.Man o' War wrote: ↑Thu Sep 08, 2022 6:00 pmAs for geopolitical ramifications, there will be many words tossed about, but little change I would imagine.

Re: September 2022 Obituaries
Attila "Art" Zombor passed away on Thursday, September 8. He was 85 and one of the last remaining members of the former Allen Park Model Railroad Club (if not the last). He served as merchandise manager for both the Chesapeake & Ohio Historical Society and the Pere Marquette Historical Society across several decades. He also served for several years on the C&OHS Board of Directors. He was a familiar face behind tables at train shows across southeast Michigan, his last being the Ann Arbor Model Railroad Club's show in Saline last February.
Attila's family fled Hungary when the Soviets invaded in the 1950s. He served in the US military after becoming a naturalized citizen and will be buried at Fort Custer.

Re: September 2022 Obituaries
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I take a look at my life and realize there's not much left
'Cause I've been blastin' and laughin' so long, that
Even my mama thinks that my mind is gone
But I ain't never crossed a man that didn't deserve it
Me be treated like a punk, you know that's unheard of
You better watch how you're talkin', and where you're walkin'
Or you and your homies might be lined in chalk
I really hate to trip but I gotta loc
As they croak, I see myself in the pistol smoke, fool
I'm the kinda G the little homies wanna be like
On my knees in the night, sayin' prayers in the streetlight
Been spendin' most their lives, livin' in the gangsta's paradise
Been spendin' most their lives, livin' in the gangsta's paradise
Keep spendin' most our lives, livin' in the gangsta's paradise
Keep spendin' most our lives, livin' in the gangsta's paradise
Look at the situation they got me facin'
I can't live a normal life, I was raised by the street
So I gotta be down with the hood team
Too much television watchin' got me chasin' dreams
I'm an educated fool with money on my mind
Got my ten in my hand and a gleam in my eye
I'm a loc'd out gangsta set trippin' banger
And my homies is down so don't arouse my anger, fool
Death ain't nothin' but a heartbeat away
I'm livin' life, do or die, what can I say
I'm 23 now, but will I live to see 24?
The way things is going, I don't know
Tell me why are we, so blind to see
That the ones we hurt, are you and me?
Been spendin' most their lives, livin' in the gangsta's paradise
Been spendin' most their lives, livin' in the gangsta's paradise
Keep spendin' most our lives, livin' in the gangsta's paradise
Keep spendin' most our lives, livin' in the gangsta's paradise
Power and the money, money and the power
Minute after minute, hour after hour
Everybody's runnin', but half of them ain't lookin'
It's goin' on in the kitchen, but I don't know what's cookin'
They say I gotta learn, but nobody's here to teach me
If they can't understand it, how can they reach me
I guess they can't, I guess they won't
I guess they front, that's why I know my life is out of luck, fool
Been spendin' most their lives, livin' in the gangsta's paradise
Been spendin' most their lives, livin' in the gangsta's paradise
Keep spendin' most our lives, livin' in the gangsta's paradise
Keep spendin' most our lives, livin' in the gangsta's paradise
Tell me why are we, so blind to see
That the ones we hurt, are you and me?
