Ad astra, Colonel.
I hate 2016 so much.
It is the worst.
And I'm not even that kind of person "New Year, New Me!", "Goodbye :: previous year ::!"
That's not me.
But this shit is getting a strong farewell. Jesus fuck.
That said, 95 is a pretty full damn life. Good for him for making it that far; that's beautiful.
Wow....
