So you guys know...
Paul's response to this was sort of like the old joke:



A man joins a Tibetan temple. He takes a vow of silence but is allowed to say two words every year. After an arduous 12 months of eating rice, sleeping on a wooden bed with a raggedy blanket, and working 14-hour days in the field, the man goes to the head monk and says, “More blankets.”

Another year passes, and he visits the head monk and says, “More food.” The man goes through one more year eating good meals and sleeping well, but he’s drained by the long days of work. He calls on the head monk and uses his two words to say, “I’m leaving.”

“Good,” the head monk replies. “You’ve done nothing but bitch since you got here.”


In the years he's been dealing with it, there was never any feeling sorry for himself...

hope it stays away bud!!!

Congratulations! Remember those rough times, and use your second chance wisely. Live each day to its fullest, appreciate the people around you, take time to lie on your back and watch the clouds. Appreciate the things that most people are too jaded to notice, and do the things that they say they will do "some day". I see a lot of people who say they will live life "some day", and a lot who say "I wish I did". I have a strong suspicion that those people in the second group started out in the first.

Swimmer 06-08-2008 11:32 AM

Those tests always bring perspective one way or another. Congratulations and enjoy.

piemma 06-09-2008 01:56 PM

Thanks Guys. I really appreciate all the kind words. I didn't realize I had some many friends on the Board.

..and to one of my best friends Bryan, I say, it wouldn't have done any good to bitch to you anyway.You would have given me a quick kick in the back side.

Bryan, thanks for being such a good friend through this thing.

Hooper 06-09-2008 01:59 PM
