  5. I was born 70 years ago today. The last time I was so happy about my birthday was when I turned 21. I retired in February and still working on a daily schedule. I can't believe how well I sleep now, no more 3am alarms and going off to work. For the most part I am in perfect health. BUT my 70-year-old body, still has the brain of an 18-year-old juvenile delinquent. Thanks for looking Mike

  12. I took my car into the Ford dealer by me. For 40,000-mile service and to see what Supercars he has started selling. McLeran, Lambo, AMG SL Mercedes and so on. What really caught my eye was a 2022 Bentely Flying Spur GT ($245,499). I have seen a lot of black cars before but nothing like this. Yes, it is shiny but so deep that you could walk into it and get lost. Anyone else experienced this Beluga Black paint job? Mike
