You old "buzzards" make the world revolve.  You go out and do something for yourself instead of sitting on the couch and loafing around.  Take a look at most teenagers today...most of them have very limited outdoors skills due to video games and sattelite tv.  I admire and try to soak as much info from you guys... Alot of you older people have probably forgotten more than I will absorb but I try.

Tom, I do not wish I was 18 again.  Maybe in another 20 years, that will have changed.  ;)

There is a time one reaches in his life when he sees the tunnel at the end of the light.  Perhaps some never reach that point, but most that I've met do.  Then 18 seems like the best age.  The world is still new, you have few real responsibilities, you generally still have family to depend upon, and there is nothing that you don't know.  ;D
