It was a GREAT piece of music. I hope I can carry that memory to my grave.

No use wasting your words. Few believe that the effort is worth the result. FAR too many believe that "do what feels good" is more important than TRYING to excel.

"I'd say the same about Jews, Muslims, or any religion that presumed the same, but it's only the Christians who are doing it." You are right. Muslims today are just blowing up anyone they can to force their ideas on us. Christians in the US are just spouting off for the most part. That is FAR...

Not point in agreeing with you, is there? :confused: Lazy has EVERY thing to do with it. The path of least resistance is EASY to follow. NOTHING good, is EASY.

Most anything, no maximum salary, just something that very impressionable children won't choose to follow. I see NO reason they could not run a day care center. Want your kids there? I remember clearly my "children" at the youth prison saying that there is no use in "acting right" if they can...

You are right. Few could live with the strict rules they lived by today. People today are just too darn lazy to do ANYTHING that requires hard work or commitment. Shoot, people today can't even keep the booths clean at McDonald's let alone anything else. Few good things are EASY, religious or...

It all falls back on OVM and his shorts! :p

A LONG LONG time ago, when I was a freshman in high school, a rather famous sax player was doing "tours" at Catholic High Schools to promote music studies. I was offered the chance to play with his band when he came to our school. The sax man? Stan Getz, the song? 'The Girl from Impanema."...

I don' know if you ever had the joy of raising kids, but I did. It was VERY hard to teach them right from wrong. BOTH of them came to me, while they were in high school, different schools in different states, asking why it was that the really good kids on the sports team got away with all kinds...

Hope we meet up again soon as well, we always enjoy spending time with you both.

We all feel for you, we have all been there before.

Yes, my wife is one of the primary reasons we have made it this far. Not to worry my friend, we ALWAYS look you up when down there if we are doing more than passing through.

Yeah, I know. I remember guys on the Leafs from that era, like Keon and Pullford. When I was a kid I knew ALL that stuff for MOST players in the Original 6. As a kid that was important, not it is not. I have just let that go.

"Replace "playing a game" with any profession you choose, whether it's "flipping burgers" or "fighting fires" or "serving in Congress" or "driving a truck" and you'll see how ridiculous of a statement that is, unless it's games, games, and only games that you find abhorrent in all its forms."...

They are one flat out amazing aircraft. I was MORE than lucky, I got to see one take off once, while I was in Japan. UNBELIEVABLE thing to see.

You know, I SHOULD remember him, I just don't. I used to pay a LOT more attention to hockey back then. Must be old age setting in.

Wish we were home, we WOULD be out on the boat. The Weather here is keeping us inside. Hot, muggy and many storms. Going down to the hot tub in a bit. Dinner this evening.

Well, 8 of the 40 has been in the truck. We are doing fine. Advice? For newlyweds? By the time they are married it's likely too late. MOST long term marriages are made long before the wedding.

Thanks all.
