  • 165 days to go

    more bird stuff

    Congrats!!   As a past work-mate once said to me, the trick is making it to retirement.   Sadly, he didn't.   Nor did many of my closest friends.   -  I retired this past January.  The 8th was my last day.  Since then I've done many projects around the house that I wouldn't have dreamed of because...I didn't have the time.   🙂   

    Again, congrats!  And let's have a long and happy retirement!

    And congrats to you to Orion. I retired at age 61 and have never regretted it for one day. I had invested in as many IRAs and other things like IRAs in addition to getting a real retirement from the old VA system which is better than the new one by far. Did the same with my wife's retirement. Sacrifices of unneeded high end items during work days allowed us to pay off a house and contribute to IRAs, etc. Why buy a Mercedes when a Mazda or a Subaru gets you there and back for half the cost? Now if I could just convince her that the Mazda Miata has the highest safety and reliability ratings of any car made, retirement could be even more fun. I gave up the Honda VFR 800. Safety belts don't work well on those. But it sure got great gas mileage on my 90 mile roundtrip trek to work and back my last 8 years. I have a whole story on my triple driving violation ride one day that the trooper just gave me a warning ticket for. I think he was surprised when I told him I was definitely guilty of all three with a smile on my face. His closing comment as he gave me the break was, "Do you always drive that thing like that?"  LOL!

    Now that there was definitely a pro driver. I was a pro skydiver capable of standing on my head going 200 mph plus to swoop in on linked up group below me and flaring out perfectly slowing to around 120 mph to join in the circle. Now that I could do. Driving a car that way-no way Jose. Unless you count taking my Honda cycle up through the twisties of the mountains of Colorado. That I could do very, very well without skydiving over the side even though I swear that thing was so fast I believe it could fly too.  LOL!

    You put the right tires on it and it would be a blast on the street.

    Oh, I'm positive I could take out a guard rail or two.?️

  • A friend of mine is a Miata guy (and a Mustang guy....usually has a couple of both).  Not much power...but not much car.  The Miata is a blast to drive around.

    I need you to convince my wife. Her argument against it is the high number of idiots around here with monster pickup trucks, often with huge steel deer catchers on the front. I keep telling her if one of those hits her larger Subaru Outback she'd be just as dead. And the Miata has a nice steel cage around you which is why it does so well in crash tests. I even tell her she can quickly get it away from those monsters with an agile car like that, but she remains stubbornly unconvinced.?

    Wives!  They just don't get it!  🙂    (reminds me....I've gotta change a tie rod end and a couple of sway bar links on the vette)
