Oh I'm working on it. I fiddle around in the shop, learning some really basic skills but getting there.

Okay. That's great. What moment in your life do you think had it been any different, you wouldn't be where you are today?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Wow, another interesting question. There are so many. I think the night I meet my wife at the instigation of some friends would be one of those. My life certainly changed significantly then.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Oh, how long have you and your wife been together?

Okay, i think I have a guess now. I might be severely undershooting or overshooting based on the information, but i think you're: 49

This has been a ton of fun. Thank you for taking the time to do it. I was very careful in my answers, hoping not to give too much away. I think I was mostly successful.

I'm pretty impressed at the 49 number though!

You're actually 12 years too young. I just celebrated birthday 61.

I'm glad you enjoyed participating :D

Yeah i think you were successful too, because 61 is insane. How on Earth are you 61? All your answers sound younger than 61

I'll take that as a compliment! I've had the same job since December 2001. My first marriage lasted over 20 years. My second is at 12 already. Three sons, one daughter, a wife who's a career soldier, means we move a lot.

4 kids!! Congrats man. I guess if i knew you had remarried i could've been more spot on haha

That would have been a giveaway.
