It's a double definition clue.
You have Charon the moon[^], and you have Charon the ferryman[^], who in Greek mythology would accept payment in return for passage for the dead across the river Styx. Some sources claim that this payment would be in the form of a silver coin (or two).

And, I did, but the flashbacks to memories of my ex-wife came howling back
Not saying I blame that on Kent, though.

For what exactly was she a reference? This could be material for my book 'Living a happy life by avoiding PTSD', Chapter 1, 'Women'.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

@Kent-Sharkey should receive your thanks

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

And thank you! for letting me know about this (but I always read stuff from Bill. It opens my mind.)

you're going to hate my newest resolution to write all my control statements as haikus.

love this!
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

I think you should have your own forum here on CP; what do you think about "Stream of Codeiousness" as a title ?
cheers, your admirer, Bill

There was a codewitch called Honey
Who thought post haikus was funny.
So she . . . (Actually, this isn't the soapbox, so never mind).

There once was a man from budapest
who had something to get off his chest
he talked up a storm
until the early morn
and i'm sure you can work out the rest

Ah, it is with great joy I see I've turned you to the dark(er) side.
You can now code in limerick instead of haiku.
Now - with the road before you cleared, your next stop: CP-MVP.

i just realized there's a typo in your sig and because of where it is it's so perfect i think it might be deliberate.

Alas, I will not take credit for cleverness and will fix the typo.
(you many wish to visit what passes for my website (one page, text only).
Best: search google for balboos and pick 'Balboos' Contemplations and such'.
I call this best because it helps, as the winner of the search, keeping it on top of the list.
Thanks - I shall now go and repair.

So i have to ask because one of your quotes "a mitzvah is its own reward"
are you observant and jewish? I'm just curious because while I am not jewish (at least by rearing but i might be by blood) I am fascinated with judaism and very nearly converted.
