Company has answer to backwards dilemma: What is retirement and why does it have to come at the end of your career and life?

Waiting until you are 65 is like waiting until the expiration date has passed. Milk may still be palatable after its expiry...
Unlike the stoic British, who bravely endure, cowboys accept their lot by simmering until they boil. Kicking a rock as hard as possible is an acceptable resolution for pent up anger. Or, if there is a rattlesnake handy, stomping the hell out of him before he bites you is high on the kick butt list of cowboy psychological frustration responses. Ignoring a whiner, who in response escalates his ve...
Reporting from the State of Maine. To get to Maine from Boston you must drive north on interstate 95. On the way stop in New Hampshire and pick up some bargain liquor.

Do you remember the par 3 courses where you could play a quick round, get a good-for-you score, maybe get a couple of pars, and be at the bar quicker?
Par 3s are great for what they are but for me those courses always felt like, bumpers at bowling, junior size, ladies tee, or senior portions. Well now you can play a PGA type course and beat your best scores, lower your handicap, and feel be...
Teddy, of Chappaquiddick fame, has again amazed his fans and distracters. In 1973, while on a campaign trip to eastern Massachusetts, Teddy met Linda Mae Amherst Jones.
Jones was a campaign assistant and granddaughter of a rumrunner under the employee of old man Joseph Kennedy. Apparently Joneses grandmother, who drove a prohibition era whiskey truck, had a tryst with old Joe resulting i...
