January 1953 for me, August 1954 for my wife. I retired January 31, wife is still working, we are both going strong.

My old boss called me a couple of days ago. Said look what happened, you retired and the world went to hell! I never knew I had that kind of power.

I can bring Moon Pies and RC Cola to the dinner.

When I was a kid, my dad was an elementary teacher, and he would take me into the teachers lounge sometimes. There was one of those old chest type pop machines and I would always get a Fanta red cream soda.
