Today is the last paid day at the salt mine. 26 years, 400,000 miles of commute. Company paid for a trip to Hippa Island on Haida Gwai middle of this month.

Well earned. Enjoy. And if my experience (and that of my friends) is any clue, life will be getting better.

Enjoy retirement and hopefully the salt mine will not take away your pension and the politicians will keep their hands off your social security. Good luck fishing in BC.

Congrats on the retirement, JG!

I second that motion for Todd as Mod. Hell, he can't be any worse than my last mod recommendation to Bob: Sky-Guy. smile

All those in favor in Todd as a Mod - say yes!

All those opposed - piss off! Like the mods around here care what any of you say.

JG and Bucket were my second SRC partners-in-crime. I still get a chuckle when I think back to Bucket rowing that chute below the hatchery hole and JG exclaiming, rather loudly, "ROW GDMMIT ROW, ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL US"

Hope to see you in retirement (whatever the hell that is) JG, I'm sure it will suit you well!

Congrats! Enjoy Hippa, best king fishing I ever had, the chopper ride is worth the price of admission.

My boss is a dick, won't buy me [Bleeeeep!] to quit, so I gotta keep working.


Maybe someday.

Good luck, Garcia


You got the part about you boss being a DICK right.
