6. Well, I don't have much time left, so if there is a reason, it had better become apparent real soon.

I appreciate the kind words. I really do.

Reality does not seem to agree with you, but I do appreciate it.

Also... just eight drinks?

You are not one of my Irish-descended uncles... they would have had that much before they even arrived at Grandma's house!

(P.S.: I do not like asking for help because there are so many out there in worse straits than I am in, and, they actually have potential. They are not lost causes like I am. They deserve to be helped. I have nothing to offer anymore. They do.)
