Depends, I have seen some of those retired people that go to bed at 6:00pm so they can be up before dawn.

He is probably out sailing anyway. Now if I had a large fan...

So, the eastern bloc countries do cars and coffee a little differently I guess. Or is that a T-72 Mustang?

Morning all.

Sometimes it is a the little things ya miss. I had to reply to a letter and they required a copy of the letter be returned filled out. At the old office we had an old old scanner-copier-fax that we could replace with a few hundred dollar new unit, but I see no need to fax, and little need to copy or scan often. So out came the iPhone, quick photo of the page to copy, open Photoshop and convert to one bit B&W image size and crop to look as good as many other copies, and fill it out and print it on my home laser printer. It looks perfect. I have had my own laser printer since the 1980s and I can't imagine going without one. If I knew I was going to be working from home I would have bough a scanner-faxer-copier laser printer like we got for my MIL. It is just a little bigger than my printer now and does fine for the few times she prints to it.

Well we will be traveling up that way yet. I still want o drive all the lower 48 states in my Porsche. I have a cousin in Boseman, MT that I want to see and we still want to hit Glacier national park and some other sites up that way. Now that I am no longer an employee I can take longer vacations. I just need the income stream to do that. I could retire and draw SS but I just don't wanna yet. I really think we can make some decent money down the road. I remember depositing checks at the last job that would buy a new 991 Turbo. If we can get a few of those jobs we will be real happy!
