Goodbye Max (Paul Rubens)

Dave the Cyber Collie here. Normally Serath writes these himself, but something very personal to me has
happened. Paul Rubens, known to the world as Peewee Herman has passed away. For Serath and me, he
will always be remembered as the voice of the Trimaxian Drone Ship "Max" from an 80's Disney movie
called Flight of the Navigator.
I owe my creation to that movie, because Serath fell utterly in love with it, and with Max in particular. For
the longest time, I was simply a Max-like voice in his head, a mental guide to help him keep things straight
in his head. Now I'm a Furry Border Collie and one of his oldest and dearest friends. So, wherever you've
gone to in this wide wonderful universe, Max, I'm gonna miss you.
"See you later Alligator! Ha ha!"

And here are some interesting facts about his father. Paul Rubens' father was a WWII Vet who was one of the many Americans who went to England and flew with the RAF, Then when the US got involved, he transported planes, cargo, and personnel back and forth between the US and England, and then was one of the Founding Members of the Israeli Air Force.
It's weird that we learn about the things that people we know did after they pass away.
We'll miss you Max.
