 RA> And humming 'Take This Job and Shove It'?
 Actually, the _job_ was o.k. It was the uncertainty of the whole situation
 as there has been _massive_ "downsizing" in our business.
 RA> When our section chief
 RA> retired this time last year, he walked out the door humming 'So Long,
 RA> It's Been Nice to Know You' (and he moved to Mexico even though he and
 RA> Jeannette don't know two words of Spanish between them).
 
 My Dad retired to Guadalajara and couldn't speak enough Spanish to
 communicate with his cleaning service. However, he _did_ live in a
 "non-Mexican neighborhood" and could speak, read and write Esperanto.
 (Now there's a discussion for you...  Advocation of Esperanto as the
 _universal_ language. )
 RA> Congratulations!  I have this sneaking hunch you are going to enjoy a
 RA> very active and busy retirement.
 Thanks. And the wife and I intend it to be that way. 
 RA> I hope it's happy and rewarding.
 
 So far it has been. Still trying to get all the bugs out of my "upgraded"
 computer so I can get down to some "serious" retirement.  (I have _got_
 to get this room cleaned up and organized. )
 Jim
