  • 20 years ago today.......

    I joined the Navy.

    I'd be retired now, and able to go to my grandmother's funeral tomorrow.

    But, I wouldn't have the Mrs. and my wonderful kids.

    ACK!
    Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust!

      This is what I mean. If you changed one thing, it would change all. Retiring from the circus would be nice, BUT...
      Sorry to hear about your grandmother.

        Condolences about your grandmother. Your company doesn't give bereavement time off?

            That really sucks they didn't give you the time off.

              I was expecting something about Sgt. Pepper.

              But, my condolences.

                Just struck me...20 years ago was 1989!

                1989..just doesn't seem like one of those 'I remember 20 years ago' dates.

                    Did nobody hear grasshoppers make their noises and see a meteor fall from the sky, when reading the thread title ?!

                      I thought this was going to a thread about the origins of the World Wide Web. I suppose Tuberski joining the navy is just as significant, though.

                      And condolences on you grandmother.

                        You just wasted six ... no, seven ... seconds of your life reading this sentence.

                            No. I head the Beatles singing:

                            It was twenty years ago, today,
                            Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play.
                            They've been goin' in and out of style,
                            But they're guaranteed to raise a smile.
