Well, one thing I can say for certain is you sure are one hip guy for your age. I think the people who are at another level than me (65) are so much more interesting to talk to than people my age who think we know everything. We were surrounded by people older than us but way more active than us and way smarter than us in so many ways. I never rejected their point of view on anything. So many times even when I didn't agree with them they turned out to be in the correct lane on whatever we were talking about.
I hope and pray I can progress to the upper tier age-wise and become a little wiser and stay teachable throughout the rest of my life.
I enjoy the hell out of your posts. Thanks for the laughs along the way.
