John Disque

There are so many it's hard to single something out, but this one brings a smile for me. His sense of humor was a force of nature, and his intelligence was uncanny. One of his more recent victories: I was thirty something years old by the time I learned that you could eat pomegranate seeds. He loved pomegranates, and somewhere in my youth he told me you had to spit out the hard seed part because they were poisonous. That sleeper lasted three decades! One night standing in the kitchen with my wife she had to tell me I was doing it wrong. He belly laughed when I called to tell him.
