I retired four years ago when I was 66. Went to work helping a contractor I know from January thru September this year. It was good to get out of the house for a while.

The salary was not that shabby either.

I think we ALL know that problem Ruxy..................... some time or another........................
and no one appreciates a Smart Azzz more than a baser............... also fixed my spelling error...............

especially true more in today's "politically correct" world...................

saw the weather tonight, looks like Randy may be getting some of the white stuff there in MN................

and it is headed my way..........
hoping it stays north of me and we just get the rain........................

Ben, hoping to retire at 66 as well, about 3 1/2 more to go, if I can last that long....... the younger, "in theory" generation is growing by leaps and bounds...................

or win the lottery, or find a money printer similar to Ruxy's and what H1 is now looking for as well...........

I am thankful for being able to stay in a nice warm house today.......rainy cold wet damp....yuk.....taking the rest of the week off......parking the trucks.....had a fire in the fireplace last night to ward off the chill.......the first of many......

Got the Grand Sport put away and the battery charger standing by. I have unhooked the battery cables from the battery. In the past I just leave it all hooked up as the car has very little loss as it sits but had them off to charge the battery after I left the damn V1 plugged in again.

Have a safe day Hammers.....

WTH Ben????????????? CS'ers and not GS'ers????????

don't feel too bad for the GS'ers, the girls Ruxy has shown off all appear to be rejects from the baser camp.............. baser camp is in the USA, and with our new President Elect and immigration policy, most of the imported models will be shown the door out soon..................

H1, finally off for the rest of the week, although I will have to spend some time over the next 4 days working from home................. and with similar weather here to what you are having, not a bad thing.......

tomorrow is Thanksgiving, and in the spirit of the holiday, a few of the real deal baser camp girls spent some time in the kitchen preparing the feast for the baser camp boys.................





baser boys also went and restocked the liquor shelves, with nothing but the best...............



possibly in the spirit of the season, the baser camp may allow a GS'er to attend, provided they mind their manners, and check their egos at the door...... and only if approved by a vote..............
