Well, it's time to stop whining and enjoy my last weekday of doing nothing and get mentally ready for Monday.

Country: | At this time, as TO slowly crawls out of bed, smiles to the missus and slogs off to work, I ask that we bow our heads in silent smirking, recognizing that another has joined the ranks of the weary worker. May his day be short and the first cup of coffee long.

Well, I start Monday for an Audi, Porsche, Land Rover dealership delivering auto parts all over Monmouth and Ocean counties in NJ. It's good, mindless work and the pay ain't bad.
My wife said if Charles can work at the age of 74, I got no excuse not to work at 59 (Thanks Charles, it's all your fault ).
I do have one chance left to stay retired. They're doing a background check/drug screening on me. With any luck.....
TO | Ombre, Sorry to hear of the passing of your retirement... Good luck? with the drug test.... *grin* - Karl | |

| Well I'm gonna congratulate you TO, cause like they say: Too much pastime is the root to all things bad.
Now you go and see that if being an employee won't give you a sweet deal on some new Audi
