Hairy's getting old, he's thinking of all the mistakes he's made in life.

Looking back, I'm now in my mid 40s, there's definitely 1-2 from my early to mid 20s that got away.

Who's to say they would have gone the distance, but seeing all the nonsense out there over the last 20-30 years, they were much more quality than I gave them credit for and I should've put more work into the situations.

But when you're in your teens and 20s, you tend to think with the wrong head...

If you were to actually look them up, you would almost certainly stop thinking about them. Everyone changes.

Hairy, I thought you were discussing your fishing tales. We have no Orca’s in the Great Lakes.

As far as women, I’m blessed with who she is.

Married my first "real" (non-JH/HS) girlfriend.

She never got away and I never ran away.
