Hence my Avatar.
Two weeks ago I celebrated my 40th Anniversary of my arrival here on June 11, 1982! I did a 3 day recon run here 15 years earlier. Lots of differences when I arrived in 1982 compared to the 3 day recon in 1967.

That’s absolutely bonkers SMS! Happy anniversary! At this point you would’ve spent more of your life in Singapore than in the states, no?sundaymorningstaple wrote: ↑Tue, 28 Jun 2022 1:45 pmHence my Avatar.Two weeks ago I celebrated my 40th Anniversary of my arrival here on June 11, 1982!

I passed the half way point almost 5 years ago. I was 35 when I arrived and I'll be 75 in September.Lisafuller wrote: ↑Wed, 29 Jun 2022 1:44 amThat’s absolutely bonkers SMS! Happy anniversary!

That’s what I figured, I know you’re under 80 so 40 years would’ve been more than half either way. Crazy to think about, that’s a hell of a long time.sundaymorningstaple wrote: ↑Thu, 30 Jun 2022 5:18 pmI passed the half way point almost 5 years ago.
