I'm looking forward to utilizing my background in chemistry to convert beer, bourbon, rum, and vodka to urine.

Too many years away! I guess I'll just have to practice!

Need any help? I work for $1.00 per hour and all the booze I can drink. OK, OK, how about $.50 per hour?

What to do when retired? That's easy...
1. Laugh at all the health nazis, then ignore them. Go ahead, drink that Guiness, eat that double quarter pounder with cheese, and use real dairy
butter on your pancakes.
2. Go fishing.
3. Visit winery tasting rooms.
4. Go fishing.
5. Learn to play the accordion. or the bagpipes. or the bassoon.
6. Go fishing
7. Enjoy it when young, pretty waitresses call you "Honey".
8. Go fishing
9. Read all the books you always meant to read but "never had the time"
10. "Live fast, love hard, die young, and leave a beautiful memory"
Whoops, too late for the "die young"! Oh,well....

I'm with you guys. If it tastes good, I eat and drink it, if it feels good, I do it. Old age is highly over-rated

I have been retired so long (since 1977) that I have forgotten how it was to work. I have been practicing doing nothing, and am getting real good at it...

I hope that when my time to retire comes around I can find something better to do than drink booze. Seems like a terrible waste of the so-called "golden years".
