    Well, I DID get that patch of you from him, so he can't be all bad!

    Mostly bad, maybe, but not all....

    I get to retire in about a month and a half, got no plans and not sure of my finances, except I have enough. Won't have to pull SS for a few years. Medicare is a couple of years away but my wife still works so I am under her medical.

    Yeah I am ready.

    86/131 here. Considering where I was 12 years ago (divorce), I'm doing OK. I won't be swimming in money, but I won't be eating Ramen for every meal either.

    At work today, they were asking everyone about volunteering to work Friday. I said if you need me, call. Which got me a reply of: could you be a little more specific? I said: Listen, you've got plenty of younger guys who should be hungry to make a few extra bucks. I'm not going out of my way to work more hours. If there is something that has to be done and you need a body, call.

    Good morning fellow Porchatonians!!!!

    Welcome to the new folks!!!

    Looks like it's about time for me to get the snowblower out of the stable and bring it up to the garage. Ugh.

    Lynn and I spent two amazing weeks in Antigua. My sister and her husband joined us for the second week - their first trip to Antigua. Average high was 85 and low 78. The ocean was the calmest we've seen in the 10 times we've been there. Now I'm freezing my butt off in flannel PJs and a sweatshirt.

    Not sure if I mentioned it but after having really short hair throughout my Army and higher ed careers, I decided to let it grow out last January. I'm working on my "Joe Walsh" look. :D Wearing my favorite t-shirt in the last one: I Have Mixed Drinks About Feelings

    Geez, was just looking at the 2024 70SS Chevelle, starting price is $165,000 and the top of the line can hit $250,000, talk about inflation!
