Calling Bob K

Pope Downunder · December 14, 2006, 09:25:46 PM

Bob,

I was trying to recall one of your old signatures.

Something about not cruising through life trying to preserve yourself; rather, living it to the fullest and sliding to a halt at the pearly gates all used up.

I am kooking for a colleague who has just had a heart attack, and it seems to fit his attitude quite well.

Thanks,

Neil

Hi Neal;

That was a couple of signatures ago. You have the right idea but I can't remember the first part. The last part went something like this.

but rather to come sliding in to the pearly gates yelling "WOW What A Ride"

Lemme think on it and it might come back.

The purpose of life is not to ___________

Best wishes to your mate and hoping for a speedy recovery.

Later:

That's it!

Thanks guys; it might put a grin on his face. It was certainly a serious scare; although the doctors seem to give him good prospects; but, he has to make some serious lifestyle adjustments. Of course, he is resisting any changes.

I wish!

Last time I was over there was in 2004. I was very stressed, about the marital situation at home. When I got home, I realised I wasn't stressin' about nothing!

At least if I do come back I won't have that to worry about!
