Who's better than me..??
 
Hey I retired 2 weeks ago from 35 years at IBM, and dont miss it a bit.

My wife has been cancer free for TWO YEARS..

I had 5 stents successfully put in my heart to open up the 4 clogged arteries..

Yanks won the playoffs !

And now that it's after midnight on the east coast I'm OFFICIALLY 55 !!!

It feels damn good..:yawn:

Ed in Metuchen, NJ

Congratulations, you deserve extra credit for 35 years at IBM. Not knocking them, left there myself very early in my career to work for smaller companies to get more experience. It was a great company way back when.

Good Luck with all you have Ed. I checked out of the carpeted cubicle 10 years back and now at age 54 am healthier than ever. Gotta be a rat to win the rat race.....haha.

Happy bday Ed! Hired big blue a few times and always wanted to be able to charge their bill rates:-) I may still take you up on your office to help install my heated steering wheel! I was thinking off you today as I was wearing gloves and driving to work:-)
