Thanks Dana,
I worked hard for what I did - no harder than most people here
tho. You just keep going no matter how many rejections you
get. Never quit, never give up. Now,.... I need a rest.

d for you Dave. I could retire next year, but I'm shooting for 4
more
years, which would make 30. I never thought I would live this long,
much
less work this long. My worry is what to do after
retirement.
