>>>It seems like yesterday, that I started using the thread also. My account was created in april 1996. I wonder how many of the old crowd are still here.

>I noticed Y'ALL are getting old (says the recently retired old guy). Dang, I don't feel a day over 53. Oh well, my ten years on the UT happens in June. I'd say it's been a prety good cyber-water-cooler though!


This weekend my daughters and I flew out to my (much) younger sister Rachel's wedding in Maine and there was one part of the reception I really liked. It's probably done all the time but I hadn't seen it before. The DJ called for all the married couples to come out onto the dance floor. After a minute or so he said all couples married for less than six hours should leave the dance floor. Rachel and Richie exited to great laughter. Then couples married less than five years, 10 years, and so on. One couple had been married for 40 years and the last couple had been married for 45. Both couples were good dancers and looked far more energetic and youthful than the ages implied by their wedding dates. It was a sweet moment.
