if you need some more info, just let me know .. I have lots .....ggggggg I guess you do. Thanks. I've been retired for three months now. I've discovered that a lot of things I used to think would be fun in retirement aren't as appealing as they seemed at the time. For some, it's because the activity has changed. For others, it's because I have changed. I used to love to go to the track, particularly Hialeah. It was so elegant and exciting. I loved to sit in the grandstands and watch the plaid work shirts rub shoulders with the mink coats. The place is not even there any more, I don't think, or maybe that's Gulfstream. And it never occurred to me back then that walking up all those stairs between races would be an issue. Or that the seats would bother my back. I used to handicap based primarily on class and speed. Who knows if that would work anymore or if I'd need to learn a new technique. And it never occurred to me that I'd have my consciousness raised regarding using animals for sport. And it certainly never occurred to me that I could, instead, stretch out on my bed in my PJs with a laptop and trade stocks. Who knew. End of trip down memory lane... Karen
