No Ed, this was no "Whoops..."

Years ago I worked at a restaurant with a girl named Laura Tardy. She was rather high strung and would occasionally snap, walk onto the expo line and announce "I am about to have a moment." Everyone would scatter as she then went on a rampage, often breaking plates, hurling whatever was handy. These became known simply as "tardy moments."

I'm fixin' to have a tardy moment.

The last few weeks of my life have been building to a point. That point is best described as the scene in "The Godfather" where Micheal Corleone says "Today I settle all family business." His henchmen then shoot and kill everyone who stands in their way or has betrayed them.

One day, very soon, I'm just going to have to settle all my business.
