Ask yourself if, in one hundred years, anyone is going to remember you. If the answer is "No", why worry about anything?

The answer is, Yes!

I've left a mark on the planet that has the life expectancy of 300+ years!

Not kidding!

I personally built a 40 ton capacity bridge (highway specs), for my first homes access over a stream. This structure is so strong so big and so heavy virtually nothing can destroy it. There's a brass plaque with my name on the bridge, my name will surely be uttered! Keep in mind this bridge is already 36 years old, still looks brand new!

DAB's one of the nicest people here, rarely a cross word for anyone. I don't understand your animosity, and I don't understand the point of publicly attacking him. Were you this outraged at @onedef92 also?

I sold my '66 in 1990 for the then huge price of $6500 to buy a house. It was my nicest car at the time. Haven't had a '66 since then.
Looking forward to puttering in the shop. The owner is the son of the original owner and his wife wants him to get rid of it and the grown kids don't want it (they like lifted trucks) and he wants somebody who's into these cars to get it back in action. I look forward to it. Going to do a mechanical rebuild on it from stem to stern and cosmetically clean it up, but no restoration or new paint job.
