    I would really like to wake up with incredible strength, endurance, stamina, eyesight, hearing, etc.

    That way, the knowledge I already have would serve me much better.

    Good point on the appreciation lost. The reason I chose it is because of the enjoyment of the process.

    The physical condition part, ya I have a shape....... Its just not considered "in".

    I don't do bad for the mileage but the back and knees are going. Occupational hazard plus trying to keep up with the youngsters. I do what I want and am thankful I still can.

    Alas, that is the current ultimate survival skill. To be the sneakiest, kanivingist, most backstabbingist SOB that ever walked the earth. And to be so without admitting it, while condemning others for doing the same, with compassion of course.

    That's the way they do it, and they do it so eliquently I must say.
