Except he added Mad Scientist Esto making steaming potions, or maybe it's wine . . . It turned out great! Only problem, she won't wear it until she actually retires, which is looking to be at least one more year, maybe two.

What meager, tenuous, ephemeral, holographic, hallucinatory, possibly-not-there hold on reality is predicated on my retirement.

As in, no one needs me to actually mouth off at a board meeting. Really.

Your timing is impeccable! You'll have more time to grandmother that grandbaby!

To argue with a person who has renounced the use of reason is like administering medicine to the dead. -Thomas Paine
You can ignore reality, but you can't ignore the consequences of ignoring reality. -Ayn Rand
Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities. -Voltaire

Thx. I'm lucky to be able to do this. It's starting to sink in now and yikes.
