Retirement Countdown
Think of me whenever you see a Rascal roar past.
I got mine in a straight trade for the PJ pictured. Did I get the better end of the bargain? Did I ever.
VROOOOM....no, man, those aren't tears....it's just that when I rip it up on the Rascal the wind gets in my eyes, and, well...
Yeah, it's pretty. But where I'm going, the only PJs the chicks are even dimly aware of are the they lounge about wearing all day.
Playing bass gets you nowhere with the ladies at this place, in other words.
Whereas the Rascal, well, you can always offer a gal to go for a spin on the back, her hip permitting.
Jah Wobbs, may I suggest the following:
This one brings the "ballroom" to the party along with you:

I think the unit on top is a beaut! But I would had to have been trading a trio of Rics to get into that beauty.
I think the ride on the bottom provides food for thought, particularly the separate passenger section, which will allow the gals I am towing to "leave a little room for the holy ghost"

Apples are my favorite fruit...maybe even my favorite food.
I ate 3 apples today.
I imagine I average 2 each day...(That OUGHT to keep the doctor away, but it hasn't...

Consider yourself EXTREMELY lucky. My favorite food is pulled pork.
OK, I saw my mom this weekend and:
Installed new doorbell
Removed dead shrub and installed new
Installed other, new plantings she hadn't mentioned
Removed dead branches from dogwood tree 'just right there'
Attempted to repair old patio table leg but it was too far gone
Disposed old table and dead plantings and branches to dumpster
Carried 40lb bags of mulch to house from lot and installed
Re-tensioned and lubed garage door opener chain
Re-gued decorative eggs onto broken Easter wreath
Glued in new drawer travel-limit blocks in all four drawers of ancient, heirloom desk. HIGHLY technical
Fixed extremely wobbly bed end-table legs. Not so technical, had a beer
Installed screen in bathroom window
Tried to fix too-short cable TV wire but it's the HDMI cable so we need a longer one and the store was closed so i ordered one
Cleaned inside of moms foggy new-car windshield
Re-soldered legs onto ancient, family heirloom brass spittoon-cum-planter
Replaced rubber feet under couch legs
Fed and petted cat while mom was at church
Showed mom once again how to program favorites into car radio
Fixed plant hoops which she couldn't bury deep enough
Fixed malfunctioning gas grill igniter
Identified source of 'whining sound from water pipes,' which is a toilet
Attempted to assemble new power-washer but it was broken from factory
Inserted mouse poison into holes in attic ceiling and fixed holes
Put various Christmas preparations away in attic
Various things I've forgotten
Took mom out to dinner and kissed her

What did you do after lunch?
Good question, but I would never be able to find them.
When I was on the road, we had to drive through St. Louis several times. Every time we would make the wrong turn and we always ended up turning around in the parking lot of the same gas station. It became our normal route. We were always going east to west on I64 trying to get to I70 and invariably ended up on I55 going south.
