    In my opinion . . .

    We’ll be friends till we’re old and senile and then we'll be NEW best friends!

    We met in the apparel business over 40 years ago, and my buddies and I still get together on the beach every summer. We share and embellish on stories from the "good old days" (when we can remember them) and share many laughs.

    And we enjoy our own Senior Olympics Corn-hole games even though we frequently forget and argue over the score.


    Like I always say:

    "NO ONE ENTERTAINS US LIKE WE DO!"


    These guys and I have remained in touch throughout the years. They are comfortable — just like a pair of old socks. (Don’t tell them I said that!)


    Finding friends with the same mental disorder as you . . . . Priceless!


    We are all very different and don’t agree on everything. But friends should be friends despite their differences. How do we manage to talk without offending each other? Frankly, they don't hold back and the abuse and insults keep flowing! But, we manage with lots of laughter, and when things get too serious, we use those three magic words:

    'In my opinion’ softens the blow and saves our friendship.


    LIFE LESSON:

    We all see and approach situations with different perspectives but every opinion deserves respect.


    Be willing to admit that your opinion might be wrong. Like I always say:

    If you are the first to laugh at yourself, everyone else laughs with you, not at you!


    . . . of course, that's just my opinion.
