Computer died, forgot which email I used to sign up for DU, didn't ask Skinner to restore the account, went for Miles Archer instead.

So I guess my "official" total is 38,064.

You know Miles, i had no idea you used to be AmVesp. And of course, you're still 8k ahead of me, so i'm still way behind. Just lazy i guess.

That'd take about 37 years! I have enough $ to retire next year and be very comfortable for maybe(!) 30
When the money runs out, I drive off a bridge!
Well, maybe not, but genetics don't favor 37 years!

...motivational speech is that? Post faster and you'll kick my ass at 50k. Don't post faster and you'll kick my ass for being a slacker.
We're going to have to find some middle ground here!
