Kelley,
The flattery is nice, but I was wearing 30" trousers then- the 34"s are getting a too tight these days! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />
Yeah, we were damn lucky.... we need to enjoy the rest of our life the most we can! I use that philosophy a lot when it comes to figuring out the summers match schedule. It's easy to say "X" is too far, too expensive, timing is tough, some vauge problem with the match etc.. But, when it gets right down to it, I know that my eyes or health may be the big stopper (probably sooner than I think) and I better do them while I can. As far as $ go, I don't want to end up in a nursing home someday (with a bunch of extra cash in the bank- till the Dr's take it all) and be saying, "Gee, I wish I had done this or that when I could have!"
I have met a lot of guys in the last three years that I would rate in the top 1% that I would want to be shoulder to shoulder with in a firefight. Wild extremes in personalities yes, but you see I like diverse individuals (more memorable)- not groups where every one is the same!
OK I'll get off my philosophical soap box now.....Dennis


"First in, last out!"
