    And LOML thinks I'm slow!

    I toyed with the idea of building an addition onto our home for a few years, until I finally decided to do it. I enjoyed doing the work, but it took me about 5 months to get it completed. My wife said it should have been done about 3 years before it was finally there. Read on:

    My next door neighbor has an in-ground pool. There is always a problem when the leaves fall.

    Today, I was shooting the Bull with him, and the topic of his pool came up. He reached into his wallet, and pulled out an ad for a plastic bubble type enclosure, made specifically for swimming pools. The thing was dated 1973!! I told him that was 34 years ago. Surely it couldn't have been in his wallet that long.

    1973 is a lucky number!

      Some people are just a little slower than others.

        That is definately a great number...and 34 years to take that long to decide is not a bad thing.. Some of the best things are 34 years old.
