So...a new decade
« on: December 31, 2009, 01:03:35 PM »
What have you done in this decade? Any goals you would like to do in the next?

I know I'll get a lot of "paid bills" responses...

I got ten years older. In the next decade, I plan on reversing that horrifying trend.

New decade, old decade. Same miserable crap just with a "1" in front of the other digits.

I retired and spent the last half decade touring the US full time. While doing that I have also been with the Patriot Guard and rode on many of their missions both as funeral escort as well as welcome home and send offs. Lots of troops to shake hands, thank and express support for.

The wife and I have each had to deal with cancer and move on over that particular bump in the road. There are grand kids to spoil, fish to catch, hunting trips to go on and lots of this country yet to explore.

It works for me.

10 years  :D

The first decade A.D. was Jan, 0001 - Jan, 0011 (That's 10 years.)

Jan 2000 - Jan 2010 is ten years but it's not the start of the decade.

The decade starts on the year 1 as in 2011.

Only the first year in the decade is complete in 2011. because even though we are saying jan 1st of 2010, it is really the 1st day in the 11 year.

Yes/NO

We count the year after its done is the easy way to look at it.

Anyway i want to build a house for my wife. Watch my kids grow up to adults. the youngest will be 18 in ten more years.
Get the wife to go skinny dipping. ahh is that to much info. :D
