Just Call Me Duke

UncleDuke · 03-30-2007, 11:48 AM

since the post count caught up with the age. at least it was when i wrote this. who knows when you read this.

i read. big surprise there. lots of books, many large and awkward to move about so i spend a large amount of time at home. i have been able to get a lot of them in electric form and put a lot of them on the sony reader. this allows me to get out more often than before as it rains a lot here and the first order is to protect the books. kinda like asimov's three or four laws for robots.

it is funny that the avataqr does look a lot like me. again this is at the time this is written. the future will chage. i may change the avatar or i will age. either way the avatar and i will grow apart.

so good wishes and all that. pour anothe coffee and enjoy anothe good cigar. life is for living and enjoyment. everything in excess.

I'll be 50 next week and yes life is for enjoyment. It's crazy that many thing won't let you enjoy it peacefully. I guess first in line is oneself.

Cheers Duke!

*Envisioning the time when UncleDuke's post count is in the 200s or 500s*
*Ruminating about people mistaking UncleDuke for Lazarus Long*
*Wondering when Connect or Baen will publish some of Heinlein's Future History...*

well the post count is near 200 now and the only major change was i did get a beret to cover the spot on the top of the head so i do look even more like the avatar

still enjoy a good cigar, a good cup of joe, and a good book
