    Default Retirement

    The problem with being retired is that you never know what day it is, where you're supposed to be or what you're supposed to be doing. It's much like working for the government.

    Is today wednesday? Now, what was I suppose to do today. You know they always say that when you get old, the second thing to go is your memory.
    I can't remember what the first thing is.

    George Burns hit the nail on the head regarding ageing. He claims first you forget the names, then you forget the faces. Then you forget to zip up and finally you forget to zip down.
    I am halfway there.
