How old are you?
I'm 60, and I was supposed to retire this year, on Memorial Day, but "factors beyond my control" got in the way.
Hoping to do it next year, at the same time.

62.5 years of age. I may or may not retire tbh. very little stress at my job now ( after 40 years) and thinking of opening up a sandblasting business ( small scale) to supplement my income. The wife still has 9 years for her and all three kids are still living at home. I plan on living for another 50 years, so i have a ways to go

I'm awake. Hope y'all are too, eventually.
Hmmmm. 62.5 years...plus 50 years....(carry the one....)....That's a lot of years! I told my wife I'd do what I could to stick around until I'm 80, and anything after that will just be icing on the cake. Seems the males in my genetic line die at either 57, or 84, and since I've passed the former....
Like you my job is pretty stress free now, as they're paying me for my knowledge and experience more than anything else. Love it! And without getting political, I'll admit that I'm a little concerned about retiring due to the economy, as while we can afford it right now, we're having a hard time planning when there's so little stability.
Good luck with your plans!

Same here 13. To be honest we need rain so badly right now but the weekend is coming and we all know it rains on the weekend from previous experience.

this site kicked me off for some reason. Has this ever happened to you guys? i had to log back in. Maybe the company firewall perhaps?

Been a lovely day and hardly any smoke from out west but It was a lazy day and did 5/8th of SFA.
80 years ago today, an atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima and two days later on Nagasaki.
Yeah the war had to stop but that was pretty brutal way of doing it with 200,000 people dying immediately plus years of radiation sickness.
Let's hope that insanity never happens again.
By the way, time to check your heart with a bonus as well

Pretty convenient having a neighbour that owns a construction company and has all the equipment. Genie lifts, zoom booms, scissor lifts, etc. showed him my dept of labour operator’s license, no problem make sure it comes back the same way it left and I always fill it with fuel

My buddy is the service manager for United Rentals here, had a 10,000 lb telehandler delivered to my house last year, then came over to run it and move my shed. Nice having friends!

Having a thunderstorm storm here, when you hear the sizzle before the boom and you can smell it you know it’s close. Pretty cool.
Good morning guys.
Not much going on around here, I been working on the 63 Fury.

Morning guys. Was nice sleeping temperature last night but we'll be back into the oven today but been a nice break.
Going to tackle that annoying rattle I have in the Cuda today before it gets too hot.
Hope everyone's heart checked out ok yesterday.
Have a great day guys

I have one of those. More of a squeak than a rattle. Been chasing it for years Only does it on the full throttle up shift from 1 to 2. Haven’t been able to reproduce it any other way. Had most of the car apart at one time or another but never found that dam squeak yet.
Morning guys! Nothing new to report here at the office: same old, same old.
Have a good one!
Also, I'd like to thank Mark for posting that Alexandra Daddario picture! "Heart check" indeed!
