fall down game
37 years ago I’d model helplessness for E & H. They’d carry me in the pool, pick me up when I fell down. Diagnose me with their tricorders. It was role reversal practice, prepping for having healthcare power of attorney. Skills for the 21st Century. Now.

Shack

VRS
“Shack was often described as larger than life, irrepressible and one of a kind, and he was known for his indomitable spirit, high energy level and infectious enthusiasm. These traits co-existed with a genuine kindness, a quiet gentleness, a genteel demeanor and a generous and joyful heart. It is his heart for which he will be most remembered.”

Oh! What was a contact sheet? Expose and develop a roll of film. Cut the film into strips. Lay the negative strips on a sheet of photo paper. Shine light through the negatives. Develop the sheet of paper. Contact sheet! Multiple positive images from the exposed film.
