Personal Commentary
Retirement keeps my wife and me so busy we can't figure out how we ever had time to work. But we aren't nostalgic about "the good old days" when we were gainfully employed because we have now reached the age when we can't even remember what we did yesterday. But I send warmest regards to all of my former colleagues ... whoever they were. Now where did I put those stamps!!!
