For right now I'm keeping the S because I don't trust the economy. Next spring things might be a lot different (better OR worse).

RB - retirement is not in my vocab. Expect to work at least 1/2 days until I die, like my grandfather.

For a time I was lusting after a Duc 848 or big brother, but same problem: same stinking straight & flat midwest scenery.

I know it's the Season. For those with manic-depression (bipolar disorder) this is a very trying time to survive. The false happiness, the feigned brotherly love, the stress of selecting gifts, the short days and long cold nights... It's a lot tougher than most understand.

What only a few of you probably know is that you are my only real friends in the world beyond my family. I don't have friends at work, I have acquaintances. Reading and posting IS my socializing.

So I hope my poor attitude does not infect the rest. Have a Merry Christmas, and keep lusting for new toys.
