Have a great trip! Since you're not retiring yet, can we have non-retirement cake? I want cake.

Looking forward to more dopey pontifications!! Cheers!

Bob, I’m thrilled you’re going to keep writing. Your words add insight and entertainment for so many of us. As long as you write about tonight’s Pacer miracle, feel free to have a great anniversary trip!

Take that vacation!! First thing retired writers do is write more! Maybe about things that are more personal or meaningful...No more deadlines!!! Do it your way! The worst thing you could do is to

disappear..Stay connected, check in often.....Oh..You're NOT going to retire??? Well then---See you

when you get back..Pacers may still be in the playoffs and there is a small sporting event called the Indy 500 at the end of May...."Gentlemen, Start Your Keyboards."

This is great news! Really glad things are looking up, Bob. There are still going to be some rough days, but hopefully you're getting the help you need to cope.

Some advice on the trip... Don't bother with the herb they try to sell you at the airport. It's garbage. Instead, make friends with one of the staff at the resort. Tip them well and they'll steer you in the right direction.
