Don't you watch RV Today? It's a dinghy vehicle (or are you planning on towing the RV?).

Great news, Jock!

Whatever you decide to do, it will be a wonderful experience for you and Hanna. My exit from the corporate world into teaching has been a tiny prelude to retirement...and least during the summer months.

So, let us know when the big fiesta in CR is and we'll charter a plane. I know a pilot who will fly it...as long as there is an ice cream stand at the destination!

Well, I definitely qualify for the club on all counts. Last Tuesday, I had my left hip replaced and got home on Friday. I am resolved to having my wife drive me around in our Outback while I sit in the back seat lengthwise. With the low position of her Mini seats, it may be 4 weeks before I can ride in her Mini. Two disk surgeries and one knee surgery and now a hip, too bad my parents didn't take out an extended warranty or full maintenance. Getting old stinks, the parts don't last.

Getting old stinks, but it beats the alternative...

Speedy recovery!

I hear there's a sale on Ensure at the Wal-Mart. Figured I'd let you old farts know ahead of time so you can get your scooter batteries charged up


Hope you feel better soon lightyr!

This is the only scooter I would go for:



And of course what's a Segway without a little polo match?



Meet you in the bar for a Kahlua & Ensure after the last chuckka, peeps!

Wouldn't it be cool in Florida to get the vending machine contract in all the airports; Depends and Ensure.

From a systemic point of view, those two products are closely related.

We'll be the laughing stock when we vend those machines!

Wonder if you get those hallucinations when you drive by mailboxes that look like people until you take a look at them? Happening more often these days...

Gotta include Geritol, FloMax, and the stuff this guy hawks in those machines.

An OGMC moment

As Patty & I and another couple got ready to go to the all day Nashua River Valley Folk Fest , as we packed the car with everything we needed for the day.
Lawnchairs, ground blankets , coolers with water and food , sunblock , umbrellas , reading glasses , directions... good god!! I remember getting ready for an all day concert was " Wait, do I have my ticket ? Yup. " Did I roll enough joints ? Yup. ok let's go !!

We had a great time , met up with Pete & Audra who let us know about this show , Thanks !

How can you be in two places at once, when you're not anywhere at all ?
