Okay, see you later!

Good to see the younger generation using that old adage.

Re: Add 99 more and post it forever.

Hi Bobby,

Did it work?

No. I don't seem to be any healthier, wealthier or wiser than I was before I went to bed. Maybe I've plateaued.

Peaked? Maybe, but it could also be the dreaded down slide.

4•104^2+2•110^2+2•114^2 = 93456

Re: Add 99 more and post it forever.

What! At my age!?

I was thinking only in terms of a temporary plateauing. My peak may still be some way off into the future.

3^3+35^3+37^3=93555

3!x3!+35-3+37-3!=99
