Judging from your sarcastic negativity, you would do WELL to experience any of Life's Wisdom you see in the content of the first posting at such a gathering.

I didn't say this observation of yours was negative and sarcastic:

I spent three hours doing a oil change and tire rotation on the car for my wife.Man its still hot when you are taking off and putting on lug nuts with hand tools.The oil stayed nice and hot even after letting it set a hour before I drained it. I think every Hyd jack I own now is leaking a little.Jack up and block before it goes down.Looks like a winter do .Wife says 70 is too old to be on the roof anymore and stop doing every thing around the place.I did start putting a rope on my self when on barn or house rook this year.Took carb off cleaned and put back on the lawn mower yesterday but still got a good little ride in everyday this month [emoji106] .Thats what keeps me a little younger. :cheers:

Designer - does not matter where your post comes from or if you originated it! It by far is awesome food for thought and makes much sense to contemplate each line. To those who have graduated, or missed the bus/plane or missed the accident, or etc. They know exactly what is meant, and we all should give it much thought, So I say thank you for posting this!!

DeSigner, are you this long winded and boring in Real Life? I imagine you carrying a Cannon copier everywhere you go.

Roadking,...are you really this Small, Petty and Negatively Sarcastic in real life?

I don't want to imagine being around someone like you who chooses to be so Bitter-minded when the subject of conversation is about good things in life.(as is seen in the First Message).

That you post your Off-Topic, Disparaging and Snide remarks indicates you must still be smarting after our last exchange showing you mistaken.

Sorry everyone for the Childish Behavior that Roadking has posted here. Let's focus on the Better Things in Life that is the intent of this Thread.
