Does your wife hit the hay early? Does she ever post?

[coach]

They grow up way too fast. I wish I had a five year old again. When my daughter went away to college and we had a discussion and some life decisions that she made she told me "you always told me that you want me to make my own decisions. Then when I do you tell me it was the wrong decision".

My wife has to go to work and she needs alot more sleep than I do.

I get by on 4-5 hours/nite.

It's had to be the side-line coach and let them run their own plays. You can see where it's heading, but you can't do a thing about it.

So you still work too? I was thinking you were retired.

[coach]

The drownings are unreal. But you know, we live in ski resort and snowmobile country. Too many people come up here on vacation and go home in a box too. They don't understand that snowmoblies go way too fast and offer no protection. You can't protect people from themselves.

[coach]

No, I have a few (at least 4) years to go. I changed jobs too often when I was younger and now I'm paying for it. My wife can retire in 9 months. She said she will go to PCB without me!!!

[coach]

My son just came in. I make sure I talk to him every nite when he comes home. Nice talking to you. See you again.

[linsue]

Yeah, some of the smartest people have no common sense. My parents knew one of the "smart" ones. Looked down the barrel of my dad's pistol, with his finger on the trigger, and asked if it was loaded. It was. He shot a hole in the wall. In the country, you keep firearms loaded. As kids we were taught respect and safety of firearms, but some people are unteachable.

Oh no! She can't go without you! We don't need another 'Doug' on the forums everynight PUI.

Bye,

[coach]

No...there is only one Doug!

[linsue]

Thank goodness for that!
