It's gotta be his dad again.

Please allow me to quote Cosmo Kramer:

 

"I have many associates."

[Bote McBoteface]

Hm.. it's true.

 

Gotta feel bad for Floyd though. Kasper said his father is now "gravely ill." :(

[RynoRules]

Floyd's Dad is gravely ill, according to Len. Hang in there Uncle Cliffy.

[killthegoat06]

My prayers go out to FLoyd and his family.

After Floyd's Dad gets better, Cliff will need another week of bereavement leave for the death of his power.

That's awful. I thought his father had started to get better? Guess he must have taken a turn.

[YearofDaCubs]

That sucks. My condolences to the Floyd family.

[Sammy Sofa]

Man, that's terrible news. My thoughts and prayers are with the Floyd family.

Had a stroke, and that sounds like that finished him off.

At least he got there in time.

It is always sad to hear news like this. I hope the best for Floyd and he should be able to take a few days off, and spend time with his family.

Oh get off your high horse. I made no comment about his dad other than hoping he'd get better.

I'm not going to question the intent of your post (only you know that), but it came out very bad. It was very obvious that he wasn't going to get better; in fact, he was undoubtedly already dead when you made your post (Laura's post mentioning the announcement of his death came less than 10 minutes after your post, and it certainly takes more than 10 minutes before a death is announced publicly). Your post came off as a potshot at Cliff during a time of personal tragedy. It's certainly valid to complain about his loss of power, but this thread isn't the proper place for that.
