My Jar of Marbles

To note, this is not my story as witnessed firsthand, it is a story sent to me by a fellow ham operator. Be it a real person or not telling the story, remember the point is the story not the storyteller.

This is amazing, really does make you think, now I got to go buy marbles and a jar, spread the word of this story, and then go buy stock in the companys that make, distribute, and sell, jars and marbles, lol

Re: My Jar of Marbles

I'll echo a previous post by saying that's why I left retail for my current career... I was tired of losing my marbles for nothing. Thanks for posting!

Now that I'm hitting 55 I know what to do with all the kids marbles the wife has been holding on to for the last 30 years. Do the bigger marbles add or substract from the weekend?

Could be a bigger marble would be for the whole weekend?

Good story though!

Re: My Jar of Marbles

Really makes me think when I'm at 810 marbles. That became real to me a few years ago when I had to have a series of surgeries. There was a lot of things I had not gotten around to doing. Life is shorter than you think.
