I didn't want to forfeit again, so here is the truth. The truth may mean nothing to all of you, but it means the world to me.
Feel free to -2 the shit out of this. It may deserve it.
She saw the look on my face when I came home from work at 10:00AM, and she started to cry. We had known for over four months it was coming, but the reality was worse than the projected future.
Susan grabbed her cane and stood up to meet me. The hug lasted longer than any I could remember, and that's saying a lot. We have been married for forty years. Forty years. Longer than many of our friends have been alive.
"I think I should find a new field. The old one's about plowed out," I said.
"A new field? Like what, at your age? Test subject for Ensure and Depends?"
Susan always tried to lighten up a bad situation with a little humor, but she knew what she was saying was true. Failure Analysis of hardware electronics is mostly done in other countries now, and new fields were for young people, not old coots.
"Well," I began, "There are a few things I heard about..."
"Fuck that," she said. "We should have enough in the bank to last way beyond the time you can start raiding your retirement accounts without a penalty. I'd rather have you than the money."
Yes, I'm lucky.

YEAH ORPHETTE - if anyone is going to kiss-ass around here - it's gunna be Bubba.
===========
Yeah. Shut up, Robbo. You've read my reviews. Whether I was drunk or sober, I stated the truth as I thought it to be, and I kiss no one's ass. Especially yours. Rumor has it that yours is fat, lazy, and stinks of art supplies. :) <--- Faggoty emoticon for TigerLily.

I really rather like Red. This was a two horse race until you submited. Now, it could drag out another round... ZZzzzz
=============
Yeah, someone like you WOULD like Red. It was never a three horse race, it was always a two-horse race. I was never in contention.
PS: The word is spelled 'submitted', you stupid shit. Do you think you have earned the right for me to be nice to you? HUH???? No fucking way. You kiss ass everywhere, so blow me. That's right. I say kiss my ass.

Who's the bastard, me or Wildman? Can't be me, my parents were married. Wildman was the product of a crow shitting on a fencepost and being hatched by the sun.

No offense meant to anyone from India on here BTW, regarding below.
And yes, Bubba, you ARE a lucky man. Almost at 7 years myself in wedlock, they sure go by quickly.

+2 for having nuts the size of truck tires to post this.
BTW, I hear Wal-Mart's hiring for door greeters.
=====================
"Welcome to Wal-Mart, butthead. Take a shower next time."
=============================
BWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Now THAT is a Wal-Mart greeting that I would heartily endorse! :)
Sucks that your work is being outsourced, though. I can relate to some degree, being in IT systems. I find myself being more obsolete with each passing year and scrambling to keep up with the newest technology so that my job doesn't end up in India.

Should have gone for the forfeit. At least I could rate that positively.

If you substitute "fifteen" for "forty", I've been there. There is no substitute for the love of a good woman*.
*man if you're a woman or life partner for you fags/lesbians.

Ltap- Seriously I have been thinking the same thing. Just my family is a machine where you only go to medical or law. If I did law I would only do corporate or else be an arbitrator or something of that nature.
If medical it's Pharmacy. Schooling may be a bitch but the life style is laid back and they all seem really chill.
I don't want stress. I would love to do what I love. But it just seems that doing what I love at this point and time just doesn't make sense and that it would be a foolish endeavor.
So I will succumb to the whims of society and do medical or law. If I hate it I have something to fall back on to make my loot. If I love it I make decent money and still can do my passion.
Oh, yeah Philosophy is my minor.

I don't know what to say. I have been comtemplating my major for a while now. I have it down to either medical school or law school.
Everything else just seems like bullshit in the end when you get older. I guess my mom was right.
I can't -2 being broke that sucks. But at least you can both panhandle together. Have a +1 old chum.
-------------
If those are your options, it doesn't matter which you'll choose. You'll be spending 50% of your time in the courthouse anyway.
Personally I'm all for the bullshit. Music, philosophy, dead languages, give them to me and I'll ask for more. I'll never make more than 50k a year under any circumstances, but I'd rather spend my time being poor but at least being happy than being stressed 25/7 up until I retire, then I die before I have a chance to spend my money.
Trust me, if you think about it - your way might seem the "best" way, but in the end I'll be the one laughing, and you'll be the one having thousands of hours of therapy and ulcers and heart attacks from all the stress and worry.
