A brief non-gaming bit before we get back to our regularly scheduled news.

Earlier this week my fantastically amazing mother Charlotte lost one of her sons to suicide.  Details and such are obviously not important, just that a caring, funny, and fantastic man is no longer with us.

This won’t be a missive on suicide prevention, showing love for others, being for there for one another, or anything like that.  Frankly that sort of topic is beyond my meager writing abilities.  However, I do encourage you to keep the Suicide Prevention Lifeline in mind, even if it’s for pre-emptive planning.  You can also call 1-800-273-TALK (8255) to be connected to a local crisis center in your area if there’s a more immediate need for help.
