Oh, no, no, no, that'll be largely due to the work done by that esteemed scientific school known as 'the wishful thinkers'.

No the 40s is when the all the careless living (and Newcastles) from the 20s and 30s starts catching up and destroying your body. Getting ready for some bifocals son.

Yeah, nowadays I hardly drink, I eat ridiculously healthy and I train every day. Yet I keep getting stupid things going wrong with me, which I won't bore you with on here. Ten year ago, or less, I could have put Ollie Reed to shame- not any more, I tell you.

Just had the surgery yesterday and am in a bit of pain. Luckily I found the one surgeon who refuses to prescribe narcotics so I've been reduced to offering bj's for Vicodin or hj's for Midol and a bottle of cheap wine.

Thanks for asking! :wink:

Well I was offered the job two months earlier than I was hoping. Wanted to spend my first summer vacation with my two boys but it looks like I'll be joining the ranks of the employed as soon as my fingerprints clear. Hopefully I committed a few crimes to buy me some time.

I wish I could say I spent this time productively writing music, painting, going back to school and bettering myself but he truth is I've been I've been playing golf & tennis, watching the true crime channel, eating tacos and drinking beer.

good to hear it BF - eating tacos and drinking beer are both more productive, creative even, than they are generally given credit for. good luck in the job too!

Thanks fc. Should be okay. I'm working with one of my best friends and I get off at 2:00 in the afternoon so I have time to pursue my art*

This job is working out way better than I could have hoped. I have the shift I wanted (5:30AM-2:00PM), at the location I was hoping for which is ten miles from my home (previous commute was 35 miles or an hour and a half away), they stuck me in the same department as one of my bestest friends forever, I'm being paid more than my previous job AND a taco truck comes by for lunch EVERY DAY! And if that wasn't rad enough I get about a month and some change off every summer so I do get to party with my little men. I don't go back to work till August 6th.

Why oh why wasn't I laid off sooner?
