Ouch..! You got me.. I didn't read it. But I'm to old to move anywhere anyway.. :) I've lived and worked my whole life in the USA and I've been happier then a frog caught in a fly trap. And for that I thank God everyday!

There are two things that I wish I would have done in my life. Learn to sail and get a pilot's license... Those two skills could give a man freedom beyond his wildest dreams....

LOL. Funny, that you would say that. Yup, I can both sail and fly. I used to be a Naval Aviator in my younger days. Heh heh. And there is nothing... nothing like sailing.

When I lived in Indiana, I would drive four hours up North to go spend a day sail with some strangers on their 50’ yawl.

Life is too short not to enjoy it. I look back on my life and see things that I did not take advantage of, and opportunities lost. Life is too short to pass up a pizza and beer. If it is a nice day, go out and go into the wood with your dog. If you can try some brook fishing. If you are too old, then take a ride in your beater and do some mud slinging. Men we are never too old for the basic pleasures in life.

There are things that I like to do now where I live. But that doesn’t stop me from enjoying what I can. Spend time with friends. Enjoy that cup of coffee. Use real salted butter on your toast.

Don’t ya think?
