Another milestone...

Happy Birthday Bear! Keep the good memories with your sister close. I know the feeling of losing family too soon and too young. Stay strong.
 
Bear, I always assumed you were older than me!
(I'll be 55 near the end of this year.)

Your wise approach and mature stature are misleading............you precocious young scamp! ;)

Or perhaps I just need to grow-up a bit....:D

I hope you have had a great birthday!
Brian
 
Thanks, everyone... I did have a good birthday. I worked on a Hendey lathe all morning...

...and my mother brought me a homemade apple pie!

It doesn't get much better than that!

I guess you could watch some baseball :)
 
I start out by reducing my expectations, then giving the benefit of the doubt. My expectations can't get much lower than they are now; Today, I gave someone a twenty and ten cents and she looked at me and said, "It's only $5.07" and handed the dime back.
Math is a dying art....
 
...and common sense isn't.
Common sense isn't required to do math and I have known some very good engineers that didn't have a lick of common sense. When they cannot understand then dime in your equation that has nothing to do with common sense, it is a failure of our educational system it is stupidity. Sad part is most of them that I run across like that do not care that they are stupid.
 
Always hard to loose a sibling. But you're honoring her memory by living your life well and raising your children right. Obviously, I did not know her, but I'm betting she would be proud of her bro and nieces and happy for you and yours...
