Just back from the Military Funeral for my friend Mike Hallorans dad Jerry. A beautiful ceremony at Arlington, and it was my honor to attend. Mike was saying that the WWII guys are dying at such a rate that Arlington is doing 30 funerals a day! I can believe that. It was good to see Mike, Brian, Kathy and his crew. Mike and his brother Brian drove cross country from CA with the ashes of his mom and dad videotaping as they went. I smell Oscar here, and I don't mean hot dog! Mike and I had a nice chat, catching up a bit. I remembered how much I used to enjoy his company, and I hope we stay in touch. I think he has some good ideas for my radio project, and the last time Happy Halloran and I did a radio thing together it worked pretty fucking well. Just ask the guys at 89X. Anyhow, Jerry Halloran was a fine man, and always kind to me. I'm glad I got to offer one last salute.
