Life 'working for the man' was never a fulfilling endeavor for me, even though I was very successful. I'd like to add that you should always remember to 'work to live' and never 'live to work'. No one is going to say on their death bed, "I wish I would have worked longer hrs or retired later."

Rules of Senior Life
Never waste a hard-on
Never pass a bathroom
Never trust a fart
Guidelines
Never run when you can walk
Never walk when you can ride
Never step over things you can go around
If it looks heavy, get someone else to pick it up
Don't buy groceries on Wednesday's [ SSA checks come out then and the stores are full of the Walking Dead] That is good advice. I’m gonna print that out.

If you shop, golf, fish, or simply drive around on any Monday through Friday, the only people you'll see are in your age group.
When you're enjoying your second or third cup of coffee, and you see all those cars racing madly down the street, you know they're driven by people on their way to work. And you just grin...
Most days, you manage to dress before 10 a.m. -- but not always. Robe and pajamas are a lifestyle, too.
It's been several decades since you've been "carded."
On the other hand, a "date" is actually a doctor's appointment - and you have one a week. The drugs you pop are prescription, and you pop quite a few. You used to carry a condom in your wallet just in case, now it's a couple hearing aid batteries. Your cool shades are bifocals. The last time you undressed for a strange woman, she was your dermatologist.
Cleverly disguised as a responsible adult.

RockyRaab,
Fwiw, I was "carded" just 2 weeks ago to buy a case of beer & I'm 72YY. =====> Certain of the retail merchants in SA have EMPTY heads & NO commonsense whatever.
Also, an old friend of mine, who was a Chief Bosun's Mate, USNR, in the KOREAN WAR, was denied buying cigars about 6 months ago in Fairfax County, VA because he has NO driver's license & couldn't PROVE that he's over 21YO. = Chief Henry is now 84YO & LEGALLY BLIND & couldn't get a DL if he wanted one.
yours, tex
