Maybe he would like to live like George Clooney in Up in the Air, minus the firing people bit.

But why RyanAir?
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

There's a fine line between salvation and drinking poison in the jungle.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

That's a lovely town but too hilly if your hip goes in your old age.

Walking the hills will keep your hips in shape. ;)

Now that I have thought about it, to be realistic I am probably going to retire right here.  Unless my kids all move away or something.

Until you slip and fall (like I did last night as my one pair of boots have gotten slick on the bottom and there was a random patch of wetness in entrance to subway. :(

And if you do fall Max will be a lot younger he can push you around.

Women want me. Men want to be with me.

To be honest, I can't see me ever wanting to live outside the States (travel extensively, yeah, but live overseas?  No thanks). 

The problem is, that most of the places in the U.S. I'd like to live from a cultural and social standpoint are places where I'm not crazy about the climate.

The pioneer spirit is strong with this one.

So is the spirit for indoor plumbing, central air and the concept of living space square footage that utilizes a comma.

I want to change my plan.  I would go wherever the spirit moves me.
