This is a question Advice from Old People

Sometimes, just sometimes, old people say something worth listening to. Ok, so it's like picking the needle out of a whole haystack of mis-remembered war stories, but those gems should be celebrated.

Tell us something worthwhile an old-type person has told you.

Note, we're leaving the definition of old up to you, you smooth-skinned youngsters.

I guess I qualify as an old person now...
One of my sayings is "The future is not etched in stone, it's raggedly scrawled in wet concrete."

Another one (somewhat lifted from Calvin & Hobbes) is "Life is unfair- that's a given. The best you can hope for is that sometimes it will be unfair in your favor."

I think I annoy my kids some days.

There is a pint with your name on it if your ever in Hull. Bill Waterson, you gave me my sense of humor.

Woo for Calvin & Hobbes as well.

Workin' on it.
I'm hoping to get to England by the end of the year, anyway. Much depends on vacation time availability and such, of course... but I'm trying!
