Glad you’re around to tell the tale!More American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.

I tell people I lived hard for 62 years, paid the price for 3 years, and now I'm a (relatively) good boy in my retirement years.

Horns, I hope you enjoyed that line - but not so much that it impacts your current state of affairs.
my Mom BITD in her 70s had pretty bad asthma, and laughing too much was a rough trigger.
so whenever I "got on a roll," she would have to wave me away to stop the gig immediately. which I did.
she used to joke that God was a bit cruel to give her both asthma and such a story/joketelling son, lol
