This either has nothing to do with being a mortician or everything to do with being a mortician. I am not sure.

i can't believe this video stayed up. this is me writing from 2022.

A 'must see' movie for morticians: "Departures" ..."A classical cellist returns to his village after losing his position in a major symphony and takes a job assisting in the Japanese ritual preparation of the dead. He keeps his work a secret at first; but finally realizes the deep spiritual fulfillment it provides him." Academy Award® Winner for Best Foreign Language Film of the year.

An old review of a night out listening to a guitar player

-
" Netson's performance was fluid and comforting. His songs  felt worn but not worn out. Worn like an old preacher's bible or perfect pair of denim jeans.  Beholding the original front man of Boise's psychedelic underground play his guitar as a relaxed elder statesman is a gift and a testimonial to gratitude.  Watching the caustic gunslinger coax his instrument into direction is more of a conversation than it is an argument now, its genuine nature palpable and open to interpretation.  I didn't stay for much of the 'headlining' act. The contrary and dissonant beginnings of Michael Scheidt's set compared to Netson were perhaps a bit too distant. I enjoy Scheidt's work, but paired with the preamble, the recital came off as a bit contrived. Obviously that's an opinion best left off the menu because this author is necessarily biased. Watching the Yob front man undertake Netson's display of craft was that of understanding and great respect. Witness...

the shadow of  a  large airplane cast upon  low green hills gave me pause today. none of us were asked if we wanted to be born.  ODE TO ANNOYANCE the exsanguinated child maybe surprised  by the last dulcet note  of Mary's little lamb apparent  peace by the delightful silence then interrupted  by the blade's clamor as it strikes the floor no longer white  as  snow                                                                                                                                       -  Barton Loyd Kline

I am being trained at the market for some "manager" duties. this is a giant mistake on their part. it's my fault that they have embarked on this mission but that doesn't make the decision to do so any wiser on their part.  what happened was that I got involved with a possible second job delivering bread for an amazing local bakery. I had about 72 hours of decision making crashing around in my head last weekend. i worked a shadow shift with the bread folx. before we even got in the truck the owner had offered me a position with the company that i really had TO ponder. it was better money, better people and definitely reflected my worth in the eyes of the bread company. they are friends and know the recent past as far as the restaurant/pub was concerned so it was a nice stroke to the bartego to feel wanted for reasons of reputation. more on that later i guess.  the big issue, among a few minor issues, was that i would have to quit the market job to do the delivery job. ...
