Dr. Paul Armbrecht's father recently celebrated his 99th birthday in his normal fashion - by soundly beating Paul at cribbage! Repeatedly. In the process, he also attempted to bestow some hard-learned words of wisdom which Paul kindly agreed to share with me (and now all of you). Following are some pearls gleaned over nearly a century of life. Paul, if I had to guess, the results of the centennial cribbage match are already sealed.

• Life is simpler when you plow around the stump.
• Words that soak into your ears are whispered......not yelled!!
• Most of the stuff people worry about ain't never gonna happen anyway!!
• Don't judge people by their relatives.
• The biggest troublemaker you'll probably ever have to deal with, watches you from the mirror every mornin'!!
