If you were asked to write the story of your life, from your earliest memories right on up to the present what title do you think would be your choice ?

Mine would be, "Down to the Wire". From the simplest event to the most complex event in my life it seems like everything always ends up going to the last few minutes or even seconds. This is a pattern I have noticed from my earliest days onward. Particularly when i have to depend on others.

Short, thus far.

I like that one. :) It has a sort of positive ring to it. Implies there is a long future to look forward to. Like we used to say back in the 70's "tells it like it is".

One can only hope. At 25 years old I should a decent length future to look forward to. Id like to say another 50 years but if genetics are any indicator, it will be more like 40. Paternal grandmother and grandfather died young. My grandmother at 46 and my grandfather at 54. Maternal grandmother at 52. My maternal grandfather is still alive at 72 so that is encouraging. However, great uncles and aunts seem to average about mid 60's on both sides.

That aside, I am not discouraged. You make due with the time afforded to you. If I have any say in the matter, my future will be exciting at the very least. xD

You have the right attitude. Don't be discouraged and don't give up. Live life to the fullest, stay positive and you'll be alright. Carpe Diem... Seize the day. Try to make every moment count.

I spoke poorly of the fighting on my home planet so they sent me here.

I shun organized religion but I do believe in "Angels" or Karma or whatever you would like to call it but it's real, of that much I am sure.

And even if one doesn't believe it is still a great sounding title. I am not a strong believer but I do sense a sort of "karma" in the world. Sometimes it seems to come about in meaningful ways.

"A Tremendous Waste Of Bandwidth"

It was how one of my former supervisors jokingly referred to my morning radio show.
