both my brother and i moved out of our parents house after finishing college (university). my bro moved 5500miles away for his first real job. i moved 2200miles for my first real job.

hahaha. not that we wanted to move far away from our parents, but it was a clear way to show we can stand on our own feet.

Yeah, after leaving college, I got a job and never returned home. I was fortunate. Jobs were available. However, that's no excuse for not preparing yourself for when things turn. We warned him that we are going to start terminating the services that he has enjoyed for free thus far, unless he can pay for them. So far, he is able to pay for his cell phone because of his inheritance money (unearned money). When that runs out, he'd better find a job or some way to earn his keep. If he doesn't try to improve himself, and he can't pay, we're going to make him

22 sounds like a good age to enforce this ultimatum. He has 2 years.

By the way, if he gets a job or something and starts to do something productive, then I won't mind his living at home ... as long as he's making progress towards independence.

The drive home from Menlo Park, dropping one of our guys at SFO on the way, was big joy-time. 125 miles in 3.5 hours. I love the bay area sometimes.

I get bored so I look at cars. Remarkable vehicles I saw, along with their sighting frequency, were:

350Z 14
240Z 1
Nissan Leaf 1
Toyota Echo 4
370Z 0
Ferrari Enzo 0
Nissan Juke 1 (mine)
Assorted Riced-out Acura/Honda/Mitsu 53
Toyota Prius 4,325

That's like an average of 35.7 mph.

That completely blows chunks. Hope all went well though! I guess time will tell.

I heard George Clooney is out at his villa in Como this weekend and being from LA and all, I will try to grab a photo when I can lol

j/k!

The drive down through Switzerland with the Alps and lakes is really nice cool drive. Ive done it once before on a trip to France/Monaco/Geneva a few years ago. The weather is great this coming weekend and I have friends who go to the Lake Como area and keep telling me how much Im missing. So now its time to go see what its all about!

Picture attached from the Swiss tourism site -Lugano in the evening. Looks pretty nice!

I would say something to my dad but he and I parted ways when I was 24 and have not spoken in 20+ years. I think Id tell him to well.....take a hike. It was his call and all. Not mine. He raised me ok but was an odd one at times. Live and learn and live better I say

Cheers!!
