Midwest 88
#3

I’m near sixty and expect to be dead in five to ten years. 
I’m well past worrying about anyone’s opinion.

I got a Facebook account - not looking for positive affirmations - but just to share some of my experience.  I thought people would appreciate it. I was wrong. Bad experiment not to be repeated. 

I have a tremor from nerve damage. It’s not usually a problem but why I stay well away from any radio after about 1965. Just can’t do circuit boards usually.


 People here are agreeable. Have a great holiday everyone.
