    Thank You GL49.
    It is a one way ticket after all, as is Life.

    Let's see, polio or a reliable vaccine with a vanishingly small risk of an obscure, non-harmful monkey virus?

    I'll sign up for the vaccine any day. Have to call that a dingbat claim, IMO.

    Amen. Jonas Salk saved untold thousands of families from the pain of watching their children die. The reward to risk ratio is so disproportionate I have to wonder why anyone would think otherwise.

    I would go 5 years in the future to see if these dumb polls are still in existence.

    Or go back to 2007 and prevent WILCO from becoming a member so these asinine polls would have never occurred. Bumping to the top like this just confirms my suspicion that he's a post *****.

    There is no poll associated with this thread. If you don't like my posts, simply ignore them.

    I would agree.

    As long as the site owner and moderators allow posts like those above, this great site will continue to decline in both spirit and membership.

    I dunno, but I think I'm with Popper. If I'm not satisfied here, then I probably wouldn't be satisfied there, either, so ... I think I'd sell it.

    But Jsnover's comment appeals to the devil in me, too, though!

    id do it different. Make about the same money doing the job I liked (lineman) and take all my money instead of partying it away id buy a hemi cuda convertable, ls6 chevelle convertable, boss 429 mustang. Enjoy them but keep them nice and retire in real fine shape selling two of the three today. You could have easily picked up any of the three during the gas crunch days for 4 or 5k in mint shape and there all worth a 1/4 million or more today. Pretty good interest on something that you can actually enjoy.

    I'd go back to 1963 and grab my Dad's WWII issue 1911 and his Dad's Colt 1903 hammerless ... to keep my stepmother from selling them in a rummage sale while I was at school.

    We (Dad, brother, and I) lost a lot of our 'special stuff' that day. I held it against her for as long as she lived.

    Only if I could bring someone back with me, and I would bring back Leonardo DaVinci and Benjamin Franklin, Can you imagine the conversations one could have with such men.
