Sarge, you're what, in your 60's? Lessee... If you bred at 18 and your kid bred at 18 you'd be a grandfather by 36-38.
*smirk*
Add 20ish years to make that 56-58. Sorry, bub, you're granddaddy material. In fact, if I had bred by 18, you'd be great-granddaddy material with a few years to spare.

Oh, crikey, did I sound like I was endorsing quick breeding?
Noooo. No no no no. I am fully in the "slow and steady" camp. Wait till you have a degree, job, house, and car before having kids.

Great to see what's been happening with Bud and Kevin. They both deserve this!
Re: Cuddle Weather 2016-03-09
The degree isn't necessary if you have a good job. There are some very good jobs that don't require one, but they're in the trades, so people won't take them, which is just stupid.GlytchMeister wrote:Oh, crikey, did I sound like I was endorsing quick breeding?

I knew someone who was a grandmother at 32 . . . the only reason she remarried is her first husband died in an accident. Her daughter is still married to the same guy about 40 years later.

Well, then I guess I should never have kids...GlytchMeister wrote:Wait till you have a degree, job, house, and car before having kids.
Just kidding! I seriously doubt I can tolerate someone enough to seriously think sex is a possibility, and I don't have the patience required to be a parent. Although... A lot of that stems from the fact that my sister's daughters are, well... My sister's daughters. Though I do feel sorry for the oldest, because the stepfather treats her like crap. He's not beating her or anything, but it's clear he doesn't like her. And not because she's not his biological kid, because her sister isn't his kid, either, but he's a lot nicer to her. A seven-year-old should not be responsible for the laundry of the entire household.
Wow, that went on longer than it should have...
But as for getting a degree... I haven't found any field that requires one that actually interests me. I'm not saying anything about the work in college, I'm talking about the field itself. About the only thing I might be interested in isn't available yet, as we haven't (officially, don't know for sure about unofficially yet) encountered alien life. I'd totally like to study extraterrestrials, whether it's biology or sociology or whatever.
There is no such thing as a science experiment gone wrong.

My daughter has a degree in psychology. With no formal training as a computer geek, she got a job as a computer geek doing tech support for a mental-health organization.Sgt. Howard wrote:I have a degree in commercial art and advertising. I work in surgery. Go figure.
Makes her computer-geek dad proud. Also happy because it's safer than her former position as a "resident counselor" at a halfway house for allegedly-recovering druggies and other mentally-unstable people... pays better too.
(About a week and a half before she was invited to apply for the computer-geek position, she had to talk down and physically restrain a 6-foot-6, 280-pound man who was on a bad trip and trying to kill himself. She's barely 5 feet tall and weighed maybe 120 pounds. She told me the cops were standing there watching her and going "Damn, you're good at that!" while she was saying "Come help before I get hurt!")

Re: Cuddle Weather 2016-03-09
Y'all should meat my mom. She's short, out of shape, and over fifty... But she has all of her people convinced she used to be some kind of super-awesome-top-secret badder-than-seal-team-six assassin or something.
(Her only preexisting training was being my half-sister's mom... So I can almost understand the confusion)
She works with a former prison guard (a 6+ foot tall, 300ish pound woman who has waaaay more muscle than fat) known as "The Wall" or "Tank."
Mrs. Tank, when asked who is the best person to restrain a bonkers person who is being dangerous, will immediately point at my mom.
