Welcome to the ranks of the retired here, Bob!
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

congratulations. Now get out and ride baby ride.
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.

Ruthie and I retired a couple years ago but we aren't real good with the whole 'no' thing, so we end up going in to work half the time (her more than me).
