She done tortured me by beating my ass with a riding crop, handcuffed to the bedpost wearing a bustier and garters until I pissed blood and all that she accomplished was an erection and then pulling finger nails and teeth (mine not hers) until the three lights were the number she told me. I'm a little hardheaded. So, all in all, she's having a BLAST!!!!

I'm kidding, thats what all the retired folks say. It'll be like every day a little mouse takes a bite out of your soul and at the end of the three years you're like a lifeless trout packed in ice until thankfully somebody comes along and cuts your head off, fries and eats you and throws whats left of you in the garbage.

How many new bikes have you had since you retired that you can remember? Three? Four? I appreciate the information about the bedroom. I'll drop Sue off there for a few days when I want to enjoy myself. She a real stick in the mud and sometime can be shit fighting hateful when it comes to me partaking in ten minuet activities where I enjoy the hell out of myself!!!!

Thanks all for the well wishes!!!!!!
I had the proverbial butterflies in my stomach all week before I made the final decision. The moment I made it, I felt like a burden was lifted off me. After many years of going the extra mile or doing favors for them and receiving few or any any in return, it makes Ol' Kawhead turn into The God Father and he never ask a favor twice either. It was a very rewarding career and I hated to go, but I wanted to go out on top. So, I'm gonna make a lotta more rallies over the next twenty years is the first thing in my bucket. I want to see Niagara Falls, the Grand Canyon, ride the Pacific Highway, get Manny to go with me to New York City so I can see it at night and wanna see the desert. By attending all these rallies over the years I've learned a photo doesn't do any of those places justice, especially snow capped mountains in Colorado. Oh yeah and go to Las Vegas.

Maybe from time to time.
And when she does it makes it funnier when she questions me about it later, I play innocence and act like I don't know what the hell is going on.

I will. I'm thinking about going to Spain and Run With The Bulls. You know, something fun.
I ask my wife about it and she strongly encourages and backs me 100%. She says it's the greatest, well thought out, idea I ever came up with.
