      Ah, the retirement looms! Congrats, Bob. I’m betting there’s lots of earthcache opportunities where you’e heading 8)
      I think I remember telling you I hated you when I first met you years ago because of all your mind-bending puzzles that I couldn’t solve and that’s the cause of my receding hairline. But over the years, I’ve grown to appreciate them and the hours of enjoyment they provided on those long cold winter days. Thanks for all you’ve done to add to the geocaching experience in our area…you’ll be missed 🙁

              Two young businessmen in Florida were sitting down for a break in their soon-to-be new store in the shopping mall. As yet, the store’s merchandise wasn’t in — only a few shelves and display racks set up.

              One said to the other, “I’ll bet that any minute now some senior is going to walk by, put his face to the window, and ask what we’re selling.”
              Sure enough, just a moment later, a curious senior gentleman walked up to the window, looked around intensely and rapped on the glass, then in a loud voice asked, “What are you selling here?”
              One of the men replied sarcastically, “We’re selling A– holes.”
              Without skipping a beat, the old timer said, “You must be doing well. Only two left.”

              Seniors — don’t mess with them. They didn’t get old by being stupid! 😀

                      Yesterday my daughter again asked why I didn’t do something useful with my time. Talking about my “doing something useful” seemed to be her favorite topic of conversation. She was “only thinking of me” and suggested I go down to the senior center and hang out with the guys. I did this and when I got home last night I decided to teach her a lesson about staying out of my business. I told her that I had joined a parachute club.

                      She said, “Are you nuts? You ‘re almost 70 years old and you’re going to start jumping out of airplanes?” I proudly showed her that I even got a membership card.

                      She said to me, “Good grief, where are your glasses! This is a membership to a Prostitute Club, not a Parachute Club.”

                      “I’m in trouble again, and I don’t know what to do… I signed up for five jumps a week.” I told her. She fainted.

                      Life as a senior citizen is not getting any easier but sometimes it really can be fun….. 😆

                        Great fish story…congratulations on another milestone adventure. But there’s something very “fishy” about that catch 😀

                            Congratulations on another great ? adventure. I enjoy doing an occasional puzzle but a 1000 is amazing! I’ve pulled out many a hair on the few I’ve done…here’s hoping your hairline looks better than mine 😀

                                Cached Out is now owned by the Waupaca Public Library, and is available for checkout by anybody with an OWLS account (OWLSnet is a consortium of public libraries in northeast Wisconsin).

                                That is, it will be available as soon as I finish reading it and turn it back in. First time I’ve had a FTF of a library book! I requested it’s purchase as an addition to the library collection, the request was approved, and we picked it up today. Looks pretty good so far.

                                cYa, Jim

                                I put it a “hold” on it after you posted…got a call from the local library yesterday that it came in. It’s about time you finished it 😆
                                Thanks for the info…now I need to finish another one I’m reading before I get to it 😀
