Thanks, MI. And thanks for the "objectives" info. Family is among the most important bond anyone can have, gotta nurture them.

Thanks, als(and congrats on being a trailblazer in your family with the graduation)! She's my niece, but I know what you meant.

I love buying artwork.  I am now getting into hanging decorative plates. The fun part is also learning when enough is enough.

Tony, I hope you'll somehow be able get to visit her kinder class - it is a great experience and she'd be over the moon with excitement to share you with her classmates in "show and tell." Seriously - volunteering, visiting for an hour, coming for lunch, whatever - it makes a huge impression. It says to her "this is important and I'm proud of you."

My computer won't let me click on YouTube. Weird. It gives me a weird message of some kind of update. What if it's a virus?  Well, my day is over, so I'm going to take it to my friend to make sure.

I don't know if I would call a 308 a collectible, because their prices rise and fall with the market. Part of that too is because of the high production numbers (with the exception of the fiberglass-bodied ones). Another reason is that the later 328 and 348 don't cost significantly more than the 308, meaning there's no price gap for the earlier car to rise into.
Did you go to the auto show this year?

I go every year. You? I like older classics. Have you ever seen "Gone in 60 seconds"? The Shelby in that movie is my dream car.

I want to go into a soundproof room, shut the door, and curse every profane word that I know and then make up a few and then come back to my desk.

There are (hidden) blessings even when we are initially not open to these blessings or these blessings come in annoying and unnecessarily dramatic packages. Life can be perplexing or scary sometimes. No biggie.

Packing is awful. I hope this is the last time I have to move for a while.

^^^I just moved two weeks ago after living in the same house for 4 years. Unpacking that much life is just as daunting as packing it was.

Well, I kind of have to be there. The position I'm in now, I'm required to go to the Industry Preview every year. If it's a project I'm involved in, I have to be at both the Charity and Industry Preview. With "Gone in 60-seconds", I've seen that movie too many times to count LOL. Love that movie, and I love the GT500. That car sounds so nice, if I had one, I wouldn't even listen to the radio.

I'm tired as hell. This whole week, I worked my ass off. But it's a better feeling working my ass off for my own rather than for somebody else.

Didn't sleep all night. Not even for a few minutes. Insomnia sucks.
