    How could we.have an 80s themed party without Bon Jovi?

    Do you realize he's still putting out albums now in the 20's? (Does that strike anybody else as just weird to refer to this decade as "the 20's"?)

    Why don't the teenagers refer to themselves as 20's kids instead of GenZ?

    If you're born in the * insert decade of birth *, do you consider yourself a child of that decade? Or are you a child of the next decade, when you're now older and more aware of the world?

    While I applaud your question-asking, can I persuade you to ask them in multiple posts to help us get to page 5,000 faster, @loriannlungulow ? 😉

    Who do I have to talk to around here in order to get on that 4 day a week schedule??

    Did it take a broccoli/ice cream to finally draw you back in, @cmsienk ?!

    Can it even be considered a party without karaoke?! 🎶 🎤😲

    Does the fact that just reading this comment in my head made me inwardly cringe and outwardly grimace mean that it struck me as weird?

    Which question would you like addressed first, @srazamora ?

  • nossmf
    nossmf Posts: 13,817 Member

    Which part, the fact Bon Jovi is still producing music after 40 years, or the comment about the 20's?

    Have I eaten enough broccoli to have my first cup of ice cream? Don't you think I gave up on that long ago? Nice cream(frozen bananas)? Pretend dole whip(frozen pineapple tidbits in yogurt)? Can't I just use my imagination?

    Isn't the weirdest thing about Bon Jovi that he just hasn't aged like, for instance, Jagger?

    Modern day Dorian Gray?

    Perhaps Benjamin Button?

    Would you like to have the work schedule I once had, 3 days of 12-hour shifts followed by 3 days off, continuing with 3 on then 3 off? Would you still want that schedule if it was 3 days on 8am to 8pm, followed by 3 days off, then 3 days on 8pm to 8am, followed by 3 days off, etc.?

  • Corina1143

    Why would I want any other work schedule than the one I have? Isn't never work again the best possible? Should I clarify that by saying that since I am retired I still get a paycheck? In fact, didn't I get a raise this year? $3 a month! Isn't that fantastic! One coffee a month more? Or one fast food burger every 2 or 3 months? Or maybe just a bag of cuties from the grocery store?

    Would It be better to work those crazy hours and retire early or work part-time and never retire?

    @frankwbrown, were you a nurse? Doesn't your schedule closely resemble my RN sister's?

    Wasn't that my schedule when I was stationed in Sardinia serving in the USAF as a Radio Relay Communications Technician? Didn't I prefer the two years prior when I was stationed on the Southern coast of England at a three-man Microwave Repeater site, where we worked five regular weekdays, being alternately on-call for weekends, and unofficially taking every third Friday off?

    @Corina1143 Don't I share that no-work schedule, getting paid for having worked instead of working currently?

    @AdahPotatah2024 Isn't it amazing what you can tolerate when the reward is enticing enough?

    Ahh, rotating shifts…devoted 20+ years of my life to related schedules…how glad am I that I'm now day staff working normal M-F daytime hours? Aren't the boring meetings I have to sit through made much more tolerable whenever I remember the hours I could be working instead?

    My most extreme shift was 24-hr shifts in the military, 1 day on, 2 days off, repeat…any volunteers for that schedule?

    Aren't I remembering the "dream job" we radio relay technicians always heard about: the microwave repeater sites in the Swiss Alps, where you were first sent to a ski resort to learn how to ski? Didn't the story go that you'd use a free ski resort pass to take the ski lift up to your remote mountain top "radio hut"? But didn't the ski lift stop far short of the hut, and you would access a snowmobile in a shed on which you'd continue up the mountain to another shed, at which point you'd don snowshoes to continue up to the hut? (Did I mention this hut is "remote"?)
    Wouldn't you then stay at that hut for 7 days? Now the "dream" part: after that 7 days, wouldn't you be off for the next 7 days, able to spend it skiing at the resort? (Might I have considered re-enlisting for an assignment like that?)

    Did you know that Braums small chocolate frozen yogurt has just as many calories as I burn walking to Braums and back? Does that mean I have to add this to my list of daily chores because of all the health benefits—milk for strong bones, yogurt for probiotic, vitamin D for so many benefits, more muscle for better calorie burns in the future, etc?

    Do they still have tasty cheeseburgers?

    Isn’t it interesting how by asking this question, @nossmf essentially ignored all my questions?

    Isn’t Paul Rudd the one who hasn’t aged??
