What YOU gonna be doing 10 years from now?
Jan 31, 2022, 12:51 PM

According to my Doctor’s guess I’m probably gonna be a year into being in an urn, maybe stored in my Son’s garage on a shelf over the lawnmower along with my 36 years of personal diaries..
that tell boring yarns about my years of dating, Clemson FB game trips in 4 different rv’s, shag dancing venues attended, boating & near-death experiences of getting back to shore w/o help from SeaTow, selling & personally driving commercial light bulb products around Charlotte in various delivery vehicles for 20 yrs, living over The Soda Shoppe as a happy vagabond on main street Davidson NC overlooking the college for 10 wonderful years..And never getting over the 5th grade naive experience of really learning 1st time that wimmens were special creatures that were gonna change my life for good & bad.
How bout you Tiger, where you gonna be hanging or doing 10 years from now?

Probably be enjoying living in the presence of My Lord, Jesus.
If not, I'll probably be posting about how happy I am for Dabo that he just passed Nick Saban in national championship trophies.

Wow this thread turned morbid in a hurry!
Unfortunately I am not going to help much because while I'm not as advanced in my years as some of the previous comments, I will in fact have a teenage daughter in 10 years so the solid odds point to there being some sort of death involved whether it be mine or someone else's.
Hopefully there will be some good left on TNET at that point and I will be able to come to the boreds to ask for prayers in advance.

Well some of us are old, in bad health and have lived overly full lives! Hell I married the woman of my dreams 44 years ago, served this great country, had 3 children and 4 grands, watched as CLEMSON won 3 National Championships, coach on a high school staff that won 4 State Championships. Heck, if I kicked off today I would have had a good life!

It is my honor to try to be able to send this same post to some youngster in about 36 years.
We are glad to still have you here on TNET!

Advice.
When a young man rings the doorbell to pick up your daughter, just hand him a gun and say, "Here. If she's not home by 11, just shoot yourself and save me the problem."

I'll be getting ready to turn 70, so I guess I'll be playing a lot of golf, doing a little fishing, traveling around the country, and babysitting grandkids. Both of my parents are going on 93 now, so I plan to have a bunch of years left.

and I hope I am still able to care for my bride, “whack it about” on the links and enjoy a beer or 3 with my friends and possibly attend a few Clemson Games in person every year . . .
Whatever I am able to do . . . it’ll still be a Great Day to be a Tiger!!!

I will still need a job....but maybe I can switch it up to something I enjoy in 10 years.
Here's to hoping this all works out!

AOC says the earth is going to burn up from climate change around then. Trump made a hilarious comment in his speech in Texas Saturday night, that the oceans are going to rise 1/100th of an inch in the next 300 years. We will see. I am not worried. My faith and hope is my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Praise the Lord! Like the great Apostle Paul surmised, "For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. But if I am to live on in the flesh, this will mean fruitful labor for me; and I do not know which to choose. But I am hard-pressed from both directions, having the desire to depart and be with Christ, for that is very much better; yet to remain on in the flesh is more necessary for your sakes. My life is in The Hands of my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

… Hey, maybe I'll dye my hair
Maybe I'll move somewhere
Maybe I'll get a car
Maybe I'll drive so far they'll all lose track
Me, I'll bounce right back
… Maybe I'll sleep real late
Maybe I'll lose some weight
Maybe I'll clear my junk
Maybe I'll just get drunk on apple wine
Me, I'll be just
… Fine and dandy
Lord, it's like a hard candy Christmas
I'm barely getting through tomorrow
But still I won't let
Sorrow bring me way down
… I'll be fine and dandy
Lord, it's like a hard candy Christmas
I'm barely getting through tomorrow
But still I won't let
Sorrow bring me way down
… Hey, maybe I'll learn to sew
Maybe I'll just lie low
Maybe I'll hit the bars
Maybe I'll count the stars until dawn
Me, I will go on
… Maybe I'll settle down
Maybe I'll just leave town
Maybe I'll have some fun
Maybe I'll meet someone and make him mine
Me, I'll be just
… Fine and dandy
Lord, it's like a hard candy Christmas
I'm barely getting through tomorrow
But still I won't let
Sorrow bring me way down
… I'll be fine and dandy
Lord, it's like a hard candy Christmas
I'm barely getting through tomorrow
But still I won't let
Sorrow bring me way down
… I'll be fine and dandy
Lord, it's like a hard candy Christmas
I'm barely getting through tomorrow
But still I won't let
Sorrow bring me way down
… 'Cause I'll be fine
I'll be fine
Oh, I'll be fine
Cause I'm a Clemson Tiger Born, Bred, and someday Dead but I'll still be a Tiger LBB !!!

My goal was to make it to the Champions Tour by the time I turned 50. By the way I’m playing now I need to come up with another plan. This was back when I was in my 20’s and kept thinking by the time I turned 50 I would be good enough. Guess it does not hurt to dream but dang that was a pipe dream looking at things now.

Hopefully, I will be bragging with some level of humility about my 26 year old daughter who is engaged to be married in Oct 2022 and my 22 year old son. And maybe hanging out with some young grandchildren who are not currently in the picture -- on my kids' timetable.
Wish Bill and the rest of you the best -- stay healthy & happy and away from those urns. Go Tigers!
