Interesting conversation

[Sangersteve]

Was part of a conversation yesterday about when to hang up the gloves.

I was involved because the youngsters were unable to solve a problem.

The son was explaining why his Dad should quit doing things because he was too old and quit helping others.

Dad was older than me and had to have help lifting a part to install on a car.

Apparently Dad told son he might not be able to lift heavy things but he could still figure out the problem, so he is still useful.

He looked at me and suddenly realized his Dad might have a point.

When I reminded him that I told him 10 years ago I wasn't there to be the muscle, I was there to solve the issue.

A man's got to know his limitations.

I used to have heavy sound equipment. Heavy bass cabinet, heavy speakers, heavy mixer, heavy cable box, etc...

Now, the heaviest thing I have weighs 32 pounds, but is just as powerful (and sounds better).

Yes, and you'll be amazed at how quickly they increase.
