  1. asdf174....If you don't pull up you're going to plow in. May I suggest a book that could be of help to you, re your personal growth,confidence and well being. It's a hand book of sorts and well worth a few of your hard earned dollars. This book has the potential to turn around your relationships and improve your dealings with all of the people in your life. So buy it, read it and follow Dale's advice. :D It's called: "How to Win Friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie. best regards, jim

  3. Don't Blink I've blinked too much, now you have grown. The afternoons spent in the backyard on the swing set have slid off into the past. The days of carrying you up to your bedroom when you were exhausted by your exuberant play are now just rusty memories. I've blinked too much. I've blinked too much, now you have grown. No more tea parties drinking an imaginary potion that you whipped up, whose ingredients actually kept me young. No more endless afternoons of continuously chasing the ball that you hit so that you could take a few more erratic swings. I've blinked too much. I've blinked too much, now you have grown. No more Bert and Ernie and playing on a street with a big yellow bird. No more holding your hand when you cross the street...actually, no more holding you hand anytime. I'm sure I'll miss the Dr. Suess bedtime stories much more than you. I've blinked too much. I've blinked too much, now you have grown. The days when a swimming pool could be just a wash tub on the back patio have gurgled down the drain of life. The Lego marathons, when we built things that could only exist in our imaginations, have come to an end and the blocks sit lifeless in the attic now. I've blinked too much. I've blinked too much, now you have grown. The days of a thousand questions from you when I was the smartest man in the universe have been replaced by your new confidence and the perception that you now know it all. I will never be your expert again, only a point of reference for what not to do. I've blinked too much. I've blinked too much, now you have grown. If I had it all to do over again, I wouldn't blink so much. I would keep my eyes open every second of every minute of every hour, so not to miss any potential life long memories that you might have been creating. I thought I didn't miss much but I missed plenty. I know I've blinked too much. Work made me blink when you had a ball game. Laziness made me blink, when I put you to bed earlier than I should have just to get a break from parenting. Weakness made me blink, when I fell asleep in the recliner as you were building memorable skyscrapers with your erector set on the living room floor. Lack of patience made me blink, when I lost my temper and all you wanted was my attention. I've blinked too much. I've blinked too much, now you have grown. You are an outstanding young adult and someday you will face the wonderful challenge of parenthood. You will have clones of your own and their future will depend on your vision of the world. My only advice to you my precious child is................... DON"T BLINK!!!!! jim ain't that the truth

  4. I was on the shop floor most of the time and no one made any remarks about them, smoked a cigar or two outside on the high street...same reaction again.

    Well done Mate, sounds as if your road test was a success. Your boots are very low key and shouldn't attract anything more than a casual glance....if that. As you have noticed, people in general really don't care what we have on our feet.

    What dose impress me tho, was that you smoked not one, but two cigars in a public place....and didn't get strung up for it!!

    Smokin' in public,now that takes courage!! :)8):D
