Tragically nothing tonight - just haven't had time. Tomorrow's another story though. We're suddendly having some 80 degree weather, so tomorrow I'll believe I'll usher in the 1st day of my non-productivity with a Lusi.


Thank you to all for the good wishes. This place is the best.

Congrats! Enjoy every minute of it!

Enjoy the new freedom to smoke when ever you want

Congrats on your retirement. I retired at 42 after working for 25 years and I have never looked back. I will be 55 this coming year and I have not missed working for the last 12 years and love being able to sleep in,,take a trip,,,stay up late,,,all those little things you wanted to do but had to work.

Happy retirement

Hope it's a great time, sounds like you sure earned it!

Once I did, I felt great. While some of my peers that accepted the offer did so reluctantly and are still second guessing themselves, I’m content.

It does seem odd knowing I don’t have to get up before sunrise tomorrow. Seems even odder to think I’m retired at a relatively young age.

I have a hunch my cigar consumption is about to increase a tad.

Good for you and congradulations!
