Great Regulars: There was something uncanny about being

reminded of a time in my life that now seems so remote, not quite real, like an old legend. That in itself is strange, since I still think of my first wife and was with her when she died (though we had long since gone our separate ways).

Perhaps that is why, when I woke up the next morning--and the morning after that as well--my very first thought was of what is encapsulated in the Latin phrase memento mori.
