Alan Rickman is gone. Always liked his bad guy characters.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Another one lost to the big C.

 

[cory]

MB, somehow I thought you would dig that Space Oddity thing with all the science n chit, and looking down on the beautiful, big, blue, ball where we all workin hard to f it up. Oh the pain of it all..

 

[MasterBlaster]

Just think if all the money spent on maintaining a military was spent on medical research instead.

The Aliens might actually come down and talk to us...

 

[gf beranek]

It's count down. Everybody's day will come. Hopefully peaceful for most of us.

 

[FireFighterZero]

Man, thats the truth.

Of all the things a man can wish for, my only wish is to not die young. Thats the only one.

I would rather live a long life being poor than a short life being rich.

My dream is to one day sit at the head of my table over Christmas or Thanksgiving dinner and look over my family, and their families. A whole damn room full of Conrads, with an old Conrad looking joyfully at his family.

 

[gf beranek]

That's a good dream.

 

[pantheraba]

Yeah...you have the right attitude.

 

[MasterBlaster]

I would rather live a long life being poor than a short life being rich.

Hmmmmm. I'd have to really think about that one.

I mean... who wants to live a long time if all life is is a struggle to pay your bills and put food on the table?

I rather be a millionaire and die at 30 than the other option.

 

[Steve Mack]

If I was rich I'd be dead a long time ago instead of struggling to pay the bills. Think I prefer it the way it is.

 

[Chris E]

I rather be a millionaire and die at 30 than the other option.

I think there's a saying among some guys that drink hard ... "here for a good time, not a long time" or something... probably just helps them feel better about drinking every day.

Life is full of too many variables to choose either of those options without further information given ie. The Millionaire could be a quadraplegic or may have suffered the loss of a young child yadda yadda yadda, not too happy regardless of the millions.

Jim's wish is noble and wholesome in true style, cheers to that . For most of us our family and our health are our most precious assets.

 

[woodworkingboy]

Enjoy the struggle is one way to look at it.

 

[treetx]

I agree, embrace the struggle. If it were easy, it would be boring. Let not the purpose of my life be to serve as a warning to others.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Drinking makes me feel better about drinking every day.

I loved that show. I remember when it was on in prime time... then it went to afternoon.
