Well it's official, Cars "retired" yesterday 1/31/05. Today February 1st is my first day of retirement! So far so good, Ha-Ha. :wah:

I will probably now get the chance to be chatting with my fellow Gardners more often.

Thanks greydeadhead, right now I'm very anxious and leary of the unknown!

I hope to be able to get into this "retirement thing" and begin to enjoy it. But my first day is rough as I have been sick the last two weeks with a nasty head cold & never ending cough. So I'm house bound intill I recover, when ever that may be! :wah:

Thanks minks, I will try my best to adjust to my new life style. I think it may be a little difficult at first, but I suspect that in time I will get used to it! :wah:

I already do have a fast car (Gran Prix) bought it when I was younger. It can go fast, but I don't usually exceed the posted speed limit by more then 6 to 7 MPH. (Boring)

You'd be one of the first BR. But I already had a vett rag top (1963) in my younger years, it was awesome! I also had a XKE rag top-(1971) very fast, A full race Ford police intercepter- also very fast. I was lucky as I never got a speeding ticket. Many parking tickets, but not speeding. :guitarist

LC that was then, (last week ha-ha) now I'm older and don't race anymore. Or speed excessivly either for that matter. I do around 62mph (RH lane) in a 55mph zone, and am zoomed passed it seems by every other driver on the road. :wah:
