    Congrats!! Get in a few thousand rounds of gold for all those days you were driving in and seeing an awesome 72 degree, sunny day and you are heading to work rather than the golf course.  I hope that I can pull that off someday. I just haven't figured out when is enough, enough? No pensions, just 401K and IRAs. I still am barely under 60, so I still have time to figure it out. Although after commuting to NYC for 38 years, I really want to stop the commute, maybe go into a semi retired state if that exists.

     

    My commute for the past 30 years was approx. 100 miles round trip.  I calculated I drove approx. 700K miles in that time. Mrs. Lew and I drove approx. 800  mile   

    per  week. Our Exxon bill is going to be next to nothing.

    2 rounds of golf (Sat & Sun)  have been accomplished. 998 more to go.

  2. Turned in the front door key today.

    YAY

    Mrs. Lew turned hers in of Thursday.

    We both were celebrated with lunches at respective work places.

    The office peeps know of my love for the Bills and golf, so

     I got 4 dozen Buffalo Bill logoed gal balls.

    And booze.  Between us we got 4 bottles of booze including Crown Royal

    Reserve, Don Julio Tequila and 2 bottles of flavored moonshine (appropriate for WV)

    Cheers.

    This a hoot.

    I remember cars with large trunks.  We would ride in the trunks on a short trip to town.

    Or to the drive in movies on Military Road in NF.  Mom and dad would pay for two.

    Somehow there were 5 of us watching the movie.

    Besides they made their $$ at the concession stand.

    With only 32 hours left, I think it’s almost time that you stop bothering with wearing pants. Go out with a bang! 

     

    Pants in the lab are a requirement.  LOL

    Spilling Hydrochloric or Nitric acid would not be a good thing on the legs.

    The training of my replacement has gone well.

    She has documented everything.

  6. We have a winner.  Wacka and Linus Pauling.

    I met Linus as a freshman chemistry student <ahem> several  years

    ago.  We did not realize what a big deal he was. His name was in 

    all of our chemistry books as he discovered, created invented  many of the 

    theories we were studying.
