If you do decide, visit the page on an empty stomach. 😉

He's still kicking. And... Natalie Wood was only 8 years his junior. He was only like 51 when she drowned.

You don't wanna see for yourself?

More pure gold:

I'd have to disagree. I'd say in more ways they were the same, but don't want to go into detail. (I think roles were flipped from her Sonny Bono relationship). Anyway, they had the same damn hair too! 😉 And yes... There's a "Men's Day." It's every day! Well, so I am told. Yet, I just looked at my calendar and it says 2023 not 1953. 😆😉 I wonder where we are going out to dinner tonight to celebrate? 😼 "But the hardest work I ever done is when I was trying to get myself a worried woman to ease my worried mind. Now I'm gonna tell you just about how much hard work I had to do to get this here women that I'm a-tellin you about." 😆

I thought genetics mostly drove body shape:

Yeah... But what about the Peeps?

Can I have a second scoop of green beans and mashed potatoes?

Wow... We never had LunchLadies like that... More like: Kids are soooo spoiled today!

"...Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Tammi, listen Like an eagle protects his nest For you, I'll do my best Stand by you like a tree And dare anybody to try and move me Darling, in you I found Strength where I was torn down Don't know what's in store But together we can open any door (oh, baby) Just to do what's good for you (come on, darling) And inspire you a little higher (oh) I know you can make a man Out of the soul that didn't have a goal..."

Brittany Mahomes wants her victim role back, please return it to her. 😉 Yeah... But you still have 4 straight Cups in early 80s... Better than the screw jobs Sabres and their fans have been getting for 53 years... LoL... And I won't even bring Billy Smith and Lindy Ruff into this equation. 😉

Yeah... I went back and re-read op... Not sure if it's an older home. @Royale with Cheese is it?

I haven't read the original post in a while. He wasn't sanding old paint or eating the chips... He was putting new paint on. 😏

Have you had Covid? Any other "brain fog" symptoms... Even after the virus became undetectable? They stopped putting lead in paint like in 1977.

No. But saw it. But I was referencing the booth review asking him.

Maybe they politely asked him if he kicked the puck in and he said: "No. Of course not!"

Total:

Thanks. But you're NOT helping. 😆 😉 We want them to stay together, not chase her away.

Same here. Work 3 12s and get paid for 80 hours every 2 weeks. Semi-retired right now... Wife wants to kick me out for more work. She will retire first until I can go... She's in for it, saving grace we don't wanna be here in Illinois. She will probably settle where ever we decide and I will close up shop here and meet her back east or something... Like @Teddy KGB said that I'd stay... But just in wrong town. Wanna get the hell out of Midwest and be closer to children, family... Being a part-time retired annuitant may keep me busy in another town we want to be in. I WISH I could move my current job there. Yeah, good luck about that. So you're 47 and she's 29. Thanks... Public school math and problem solving. What she doing with an old fella like you?😉😜

Good read: https://www.marketwatch.com/story/many-young-people-shouldnt-save-for-retirement-says-research-based-on-a-nobel-prize-winning-theory-11664562570 We still saved, icing on cake... But strived for this before it was a "thing." I guess it just came naturally. Many young people shouldn’t save for retirement, says research based on a Nobel Prize–winning theory "New research based on the life-cycle model says that people should strive for a consistent standard of living through their lives..."

Yeah... That's the tough part... All in or out. Do partial trips... Like rent houseboats in Ontario for summer and do the Trent-Severn part... Would be nice if someone did that in the Southern US for the winters...

Nope... I am 55... My minimum retirement is 57.8... I am going at that age. Free money. I have over 30, so I can collect the supplement at my minimum... Which is basically what my SS will be at 62. At 62 I will take a hit and probably wait to 65 to collect my SS. I am not leaving free money on table and going into work for 4 years making the same as staying home. Wife makes slightly more than as me. We're public servants, we don't make a ton but have been saving since and investing for 30 years. She's 10 months older but where she works, she can go at 56... Which is end of this year. House will be paid off, we gone... Probably buy a second house back east to be closer to family... I might look at going to work again, part-time as a Fed... Maybe in the same job field... As a retired annuitant. Weren't not close to one of our children here and family is still 500 miles away... We're leaving as soon as we can.

Howdy! Nice to see you back! I am driving a Toyota! 😃

Exactly... Doing the same.
