The first day of the rest of his life; Improv retires today

He really didn't have to actually work today, just sign some papers, turn in his badge and then leave.

He said that he and a group of his cronies (also their last day) would probably go get sh!t faced somewhere. I don't blame them - it's a milestone day.

All my friends gasped in horror when I told them Improv was retiring and they all asked the same question: "What are you going to DO with him around all the time?" My answer - it's a really good thing we have two homes! :whome:

It should give him time to remodel and upgrade that doghouse of his! Put in a plasma screen, run a lan. New recliner, etc...
The problem with having an open mind is that people keep trying to put things in it.

Plays, I thing you'll be surprised at how fast that "honey do" list gets whittled down without that annoying work business to get in the way (Oh, wait, Improve is a boater/fisherman, isn't he. Never mind. :cool: ).

Congratulations on making it, Improv.

Great day... Congrats Improv.
As a good person, I implore you to do as I, a good person, do. Be good. Do NOT be bad. If you see bad, end bad. End it in yourself, and end it in others. By any means necessary, the good must conquer the bad. Good people know this. Do you know this? Are you good?

My only consolation is that he won't be able to go boating as often as he wants, what with the price of boat fuel.

He'll have to use this:

Which will turn him into this!

Yay! Congratulations! Enjoy those long days golfing and out on the water! :clap:
Civilisation, I vaguely realized then - and subsequent observation has confirmed the view - could not progress that way. It must have a greater guiding principle to survive. To treat it as a carcase off which each man tears as much as he can for himself, is to stand convicted a brute, fit for nothing better than a jungle existence, which is a death-struggle, leading nowhither. I did not believe that was the human destiny, for Man individually was sane and reasonable, only collectively a fool.

I hope the gunner of that Hun two-seater shot him clean, bullet to heart, and that his plane, on fire, fell like a meteor through the sky he loved. Since he had to end, I hope he ended so. But, oh, the waste! The loss!

No way. He has a list of projects that have been delayed for MONTHS - the only posting he'll be doing for a while is stuff like fence posts! :devilgrin:

Cathy, I owe you an apology for not being in touch more frequently. We will indeed have to have a get together soon!

We are planning a western trip the last part of August and first of September, so there's plenty of boating time before then!

I thought I was mean. :P

FWIW, I miss his sense of humor around here. He doesn't post nearly as often as he used to.
