double nickels
« on: March 07, 2012, 08:42:59 AM »
So I woke up today and i am 55.      Holy shit!!!     where did the last 25 years go????

Mind memeory is somewhat foggy but seems more like a long 10,  certainly not 25.

I will sign up for 25 more but hoping  they seem to go slower so i can enjoy them more.  Maybe after retirement it slows down????
