This retirement thingy ain't what it's cracked up to be.

Get up a bit later than normal.

Relax over several cups of coffee.

Watch some movie (type optional).

Take the Corvette out for a drive.

Hit Gun World and shoot a while.

Go to lunch at TK and flirt with some cute chicks. v

Head home and watch a movie (type optional).

Wash the Corvette.

Have a refreshment.

Discuss things with my wife.

Have a refreshment.

Go to beddy-bye.

Repeat.




Oh, congratulations.

Maybe once retirement hits we can all meet up at a show!

how many minutes now ru? Retirement sounds good. 15% off lunches on Tuesdays between 130 and 330pm. Movies half off until 1230pm. Free bus rides. I hope we're so lucky too.

If Obama gets re-elected, I'm sure another 20 years will be tacked onto my retirement date.
