  • Yeah I only had 4 and started falling asleep last night. I haven’t been able to get to the gym more than a couple nights a week lately, having four kids now and all. Really I think it’s for the best, been going too hard too long and I need to recover both mentally and physically. Just started beer 4, Coors Banquet, and binge watching The Punisher Season 2 on Netflix.

    Feeling good :smiley:

    Thanks. I will be pushing 70, so I guess it is time to retire. Having a stroke last August made it a done deal. :)

    Well, I will listen to music, drink beer, and smoke reefer the first month. Then I will be bored silly, and start looking for something substantive to do. :)

    Wow, almost 70. That explains the "get off of my lawn" attitude. I'm kidding...don't go all commando on me.

    I've got about 3 1/2yrs, then I'm tapping out. That'll put me at 40yrs with the Dept of the Army.

    Good to hear Fox, well deserved.

    I am hanging 2 more years, at which time I will have clocked 50 years working full time.
    2 channel: Anthem 225 Integrated amp; Parasound Ztuner; TechnicsTT SL1350; Vincent PHO-8 phono pre; Marantz CD6005 spinner; Polk SDA2BTL's; LAT International speaker cables, ZU Mission IC's and power cables all into a PS Audio Dectet Power center.

    Other; M10 series II, M7C's, Hafler XL600 amp, RB-980BX, Parasound HCA-1500 amp , P5 preamp, all in storage. All vintage Polk have had crossover rebuilds and tweeter upgrades.

    The best way to predict the future is to invent it.

    It is imperative that we recognize that an opinion is not a fact.

    Imagine making politics your entire personality.

    i use to be a huge Craft Beer kinda guy. Then I gained weight from being one and lost a lot of interest of continuing. I do enjoy a nice Porter , Stout from time to time with an occasional IPA like 60 minute but I much prefer to drink Wine now.

    I had a nice smoked porter tonight(see other beer thread). I'm lucky that my matabolism allows me to drink to my heart's content and no price to pay except a 3 day hangover recovery period, which is why I hardly ever get carried away with any alch.

    BIL is the same age as me and just retired, Mrs is down to 6 days/mo. I'm still pluggin' away for probably the next 3+ years....dammit!

    Well I’ve been traveling for the past couple of weeks/weekends and am exhausted. PSOLVSK graciously provided me a few disks that I’ve finally had time to rip. Time to crack one open and turn up the tunes. Happy Beer o’clock Fox Night Everyone!

    Thanks again for the discs PSOLVSK.

    Ugh I am still at work for another hour. Then an hour drive home.

    I have been foaming at the mouth for a cold brew lately, I might just go simple and get some Miller Lite. Although I have a great taste for beer and have had massive amounts of different styles and editions of beers...sometimes I just like it simple. Plus I enjoy the taste Miller Lite's pilsner yeast.

    I ended up with a 6er of Aloha brewing Golden Ale. It’ll do nicely.
