I thought you retired, but were pulled back       in, & are now planning to retire again soon?               I worked till I was 66, since could get a few more dollars in retirement       each month if I did. :)        And I re-retired on 29 April, at 72.        I had planned on that for January but held out until someone was properly       trained in parking, which is my baby. The guy we finally got is a mini-me       and I felt secure enough things would be in good hands and to step back.        People would ask what I planned to do in retirement and I would always       say "One thing I plan on NOT doing is wandering about aimlessly for hours on       end in the cold and rain". :)        But I do enjoy retirement. Six Saturday's and a Sunday every week!              > I've only had two real birthday acknowledgements -- Age 19, when my       girlfriend was planning a surprise party               I was given one surprise party.        I was turning 36 and this woman who had her cap set for me gave me one,       but I learned in advance about it, but acted like I was surprised.               > I'm fine, but I'm demanding a big deal when I hit 100, & every 50 years       after!               That's idea I might celebrate as well. :)        Joe       --- Platinum Xpress/Win/WINServer v3.0pr5        * Origin: Fidonet Since 1991 www.doccyber.org bbs.docsplace.org (1:135/392)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 15/0 19/38 50 90/1 105/81 106/201 633 987 120/340 123/131       SEEN-BY: 124/5014 5016 129/305 330 331 130/330 153/7715 218/700 226/30       SEEN-BY: 227/114 229/110 111 112 206 307 317 400 424 426 428 452 470       SEEN-BY: 229/664 700 266/512 280/464 282/1038 292/854 317/3 320/219       SEEN-BY: 322/757 342/200 387/25 26 396/45 460/58 633/280 712/848       PATH: 135/392 300 3634/12 154/10 280/464 396/45 229/426           |
