Robocop1051 Posted January 13, 2016 Report Posted January 13, 2016 Congrats partner. Lord knows we earned the time off.
planeflyer21 Posted January 13, 2016 Report Posted January 13, 2016 Congrats Pappy!Remember this phrase: "I'd like to help but I'm busy." I know WAY too many people that get voluntold to help others when they retire from a job, then end up with less time than when they were working.
survivalshop Posted January 13, 2016 Report Posted January 13, 2016 Congrats. , Welcome to the club . If you thought you were too busy before , you will see a new meaning of it now .?
Armed Eye Doc Posted January 13, 2016 Report Posted January 13, 2016 Congrats on the retirement. As others have said, you will still be busy and have lots of work to do. You just don't get paid for it.
EngrBob Posted January 13, 2016 Report Posted January 13, 2016 Retire? What does that mean? Some folks seem to think it is a positive thing but I don't know. Perhaps when I feel old.
Pappy1600 Posted January 13, 2016 Author Report Posted January 13, 2016 Retire? What does that mean? Some folks seem to think it is a positive thing but I don't know. Perhaps when I feel old.It means that I don't have to go in and deal with shitbags on a daily basis.

392heminut Posted January 14, 2016 Report Posted January 14, 2016 Congrats Pappy!Retirement (Defenition); When a wife gets twice the husband at half the pay!
planeflyer21 Posted January 14, 2016 Report Posted January 14, 2016 Congrats Pappy!Retirement (Defenition); When a wife gets twice the husband at half the pay!Retirement n. A magic word, part of a phrase spoken to conjur the sound of a large iron skillet hitting something hard, i.e., "Honey now that I'm in retirement, I can show you how to run the house better."
sketch Posted January 14, 2016 Report Posted January 14, 2016 Pappy the horizon is day or night! You make your own schedule! You will need more ammo!?
mrmackc Posted January 14, 2016 Report Posted January 14, 2016 ....and after you spout off too many times the undertaker will be the one that wipes your butt for the last time. Just learn to say Yes... dear,...did you hear me dear? YES DEAR! and go back to the shop or crawl under the car with a wrench and a pillow a lot.......
Pappy1600 Posted January 14, 2016 Author Report Posted January 14, 2016 Thanks for the well wishes, been keeping busy catching up on my reloading and cleaning.........My guns that is!! trying to keep out of mommas hair has been somewhat challenging to say the least, too cold to hide in the shop and do any wrenching with out the help of my friend Jack to keep me warm.......and that's Jack Daniels Whiskey, not some dude named Jack...lol , Was considering getting out to do some Ice fishing until I step outside and feel the bitter cold,too many injuries and surgeries over the years doesn't make the cold enjoyable, guess will wait for Spring to do some fly fishing and get some range time in.. Off to Vegas Monday for a week of Guns, Booze, kicking some dude in the nuts on the street for twenty bucks.. (true story!) , I am enjoying hunting down some vintage Colts and selling some guns to keep me busy, didn't win the Powerball, so no 100 acre compound in the works, as long as we have our health and family everything else is trivial. Thanks again!PS, Robo, no worries brother, keep safe , be alert and your time will be here before you know it, same to Edge and the rest of my brothers in blue out there.
shepp Posted January 14, 2016 Report Posted January 14, 2016 Pappy sounds like you need to build an ice shack, buddy dropped ours off last night I maybe found in it tonight drinking a beer while making sure the wood burner still works ;)
Pappy1600 Posted January 14, 2016 Author Report Posted January 14, 2016 Not an option in my neck of the woods, lakes are some distance from me to drag a shack around, and they don't allow you to set up and leave it in this area.. But I like the idea.
planeflyer21 Posted January 14, 2016 Report Posted January 14, 2016 Wow. You must be retired. You've been on here more in the past couple of days than the past few years. lol
