I retired 2 1/2 weeks ago. Not sure if I'll stay retired or not. May need to get a part time job to keep sane.

Sales Engineer for broadcast equipment manufacturer. If you watched the Super Bowl, BCS Championship, World Series, NASCAR, PGA tour and and a lot more, you saw stuff that went from the original site to the studio that was compressed with my companies gear over satellite or fiber

In my past life circa 1970 to 1985, I was a roadie for major Rock and Roll bands. I did sound, lights and video. Basically I pushed big black boxes ....LOL

Why do guitarists put drumsticks on the dash of their Boxster?
So they can park in the handicapped spot.

Sorry Bro - I play a Tele!

Nice one. That's better than the old "what did the drummer get on his test? Drool..." joke.

If you don't enjoy retirement, you aren't doing it right. I have been retired for 10 years and I will have to be reincarnated just to finish what I have got going.
