Just log on to Beerleg.com, lots of people there have worse problems than you...;-)

oops

Chalk it up to experience; you'll hit it next time.
Remember what the Great Gretzky said:

He had a hot wfe, so he must be real smart!

That's a great pic of Paulina, Wayne's Oldest Daughter.

His wife is Janet Jones Gretsky

But in my defense; I did not say Paulina was his wife....;-)

Sucks to be you! Nananananananananananananananananana! Looooooooooooser!

Since you asked, what is worse, is everyone else knowing and teasing you about it.

Seriously, what is truly worse is learning that a good friend 10 years younger than you fell over dead yesterday from a heart attack. Also, learning that the 15 year-old son of another friend slipped yesterday while hunting, the gun went off and his funeral is next Monday morning.

I would have been glad to have guessed that many correct.

Have not seen nor have had to work on any survey that involved sections in the last 30+yrs.

Everything in my area is in a Headright state of mind.

Perspective is key. So, your question is what's worse, well allow me sir.

1. Burying the family pet of almost 10 years that slept with you every night while consoling your son, who feels responsible, your daughter, who misses the puppy, your wife, who's dog it really is and is a basket case, and yourself, who despite male bravado, it's been really tough on.

2. Finding out that your MIL is coming over this weekend to "do Christmas" because having it normal time is an inconvenience for her.

3. Did I mention my MIL is coming

4. My SIL will be with her

5. None of the in-laws I like will be there

6. Wanting a dip so bad that you really would do bad things to people to get one.

So, I could keep going, but suffice to say this, you live a blessed life where you have a stable job, loving family, and a good life, and the worst thing that has happened out of this, is that you have to re-take it. No one is laughing at you, and no one thinks less of you.

Focus on what's important and the test will take care of itself.

🙂

I'm sorry to hear you lost your dog. We lost ours last year and our 3 year old daughter will still ask for her. Our dog's name was Timber, so I have to be very careful when I say certain months like November because Emma will jump up and say "Timber? Where's Timber?".
Ironically, the dog hated Emma (old dog, new baby situation).

Good luck with your Exam Almost Passing Blues.

Kind of need that today. Yesterday was my wife's 65th birthday, what did I do for her, shot her horse. She had been trying to bring him through for a couple of weeks but he finally went down and could not get up. Just finished burying him. I was holding his mother when she was bred and told Shannon the colt would be hers, that was 19 years ago. Relieved that Shilo was out of pain but Shanon's racking sobs were hard to take.

I can tell you what's worse. Answering 73 percent right and still not passing. From my diagnostic it looks like about 80 percent was the passing grade. Will try again in April anxious to see what the closed book is like.

Bummer RA, "the credit belongs to the man who is actually in the areana.." You'll get it next time.

On a side note my son played ice hockey against Gretzkys boy,the boy was a dirty hockey player who my son laid out....use to see the "great one" at the rink...kind of a d____ bag...

Acing all the quizzes(100%)

Acing my midterm and getting a 96 on my final

Having the highest score by far in the class
