    I have been promising Lanny cookies. @SlyPokerDog please find out if he can have cookies. If so let me know what he wants and get me an address. I will drop everything to get them to him.

    County health dept should have adult senior services which provides caregivers for disabled seniors like Lanny...I'd contact them...probably Portland adult senior services....but be careful and don't confuse it with escort services! In Eugene it's Lane County Senior Services.

    Same. I grew up thinking I hated olives. But, when I started running a Cheese and Charcuterie case, I was also responsible for buying olives along with a million other things. It made me fall in love. I think everyone owes it to themselves to eat a crisp non-pitted Castelvetrano olive. It is like butter.

    I started posting on O-Live when I was pretty young, a couple of decades ago. Lanny was and always will be the ultimate Blazers fan. My heart goes out to him, his family and all of the friends that he has out there. Really rough news. I just hope he gets to be where he wants and is as comfortable as possible going forward.

    God damn. All the best to Lanny and his loved ones. Hopefully he forgoes the care facility, and goes home to his loving wife to be in his own place around friends and family.

    Fuck, wishing you the best Lanny. Don't give up!

    Just know I'm grateful to have known you and talked hoops for over 20 years with you.

    As the person tasked with getting the pizza for his work softball team each week, I can assure you that a pizza for $30 is a very real thing at multiple local establishments in SE Portland.

    @Lanny you're a great man and an amazing person. I've enjoyed our conversations more than I can express. Meeting you years ago was an honor.

    I hope you prove them wrong and enjoy your loved ones for years to come.

    Here's looking forward to many more stimulating conversations in the future.

    We'll talk to you soon.
