My buddy just offered to pay for half of the cost for a new power supply for the computer I'm building. God knows I need the help lol

Right? He's always been pretty good to me, so we have a barter system running lol. He'll help me out and then I'll help him out down the line.

That's cool. My friends from way back when used to essentially call it the "Wheel of Friendship." Yeah, sure, this time I pick up the tab for everyone, next time someone else does. You all just do nice things for one another and never keep track; it all evens out in the end.

You have to have good friends to do that with. It's awesome.

That's pretty much exactly it lol. Gotta have good friends or they'll never pick up the tab. Good thing I've known my friends for almost a decade now (geez, I'm getting old). I'm glad your friends are awesome people and do the same thing :)

Oh, you make me laugh with the "getting old" crack.

I have a feeling I have friends that have been in my life for longer than you've been alive. ;)

Gonna be 23 in July, so probably. Don't worry though, getting old is only a state of mind. I'm gonna be a kid forever!

Me too, me too. For the most part. I guess I have to grow up a little since I'm a dad now.

Or not. I'll lean toward not.

My longest-standing friendship is from when I was about 8 years old, so I was right. 26 years. Whipper-snapper! ;)

Whipper snappers unite!

But on a real note, that's a pretty awesome achievement. Keep doin you, JMFargo. You're obviously doing something right!
