Poor Charlie, do they stop paying royalties on old reruns after 50 years?

Tomorrow will mark 38 years of wedded bliss for the wife and I. So we're heading up to Pismo for a long weekend. I tried to combine it with the FTE GTG, but the idea kind of didn't go over. Oh well.

Can't imagine why the idea didn't take hold. What wife wouldn't want to spend her wedding anniversary with a bunch of her husband's truck buddies? But hey, at least you made the effort.

Congratulations on #38.

Congrats Bill! So happy for you and your wife. It just confounds me that she wouldn't take hold on the idea of the GTG.

...women. Can't live with them, can't live without them.

Thanks guys.

Yeah Zak, these things can be confusing at times. But I've got it pretty good. She is happy spending our anniversary on the beach in a camper. I'm pretty sure it could be worse than that. We're both very low maintenance.

Here Zak...study up on this for when you make it out. It's missing a few things, but what's there is surprisingly accurate
