Harold, if you *really* care about improving the "tone", you should
take that alleged new boat out for a nice long cruise. It's a good
time of year on the Chesapeake to be heading south down the ICW to
warmer climes. Watch out for the wakes though and fasten your seat
belt - some of those guys with the big boats can generate some really
gnarly rolling action.
Some of us still have jobs, Wayne.
Just the idea of not working at something useful is anathema to me.
Most of my buddies my age and older from the labor union movement are
still working, typically as union staff or officers, or consultants to
unions or consultants to service-oriented NGOs, or to companies that do
business with unions. A 77-year-old "president emeritus" of an
international union, someone I've known for more than 30 years, works
three days a week for a couple of NGOs trying to resolve public health
problems in emerging nations. He's in Haiti right now.
If I take a "nice long cruise," as I posted yesterday, it'll be on the
Queen Mary II.
My idea of boating obviously is not the same as Wayne's. To each his/her
own.
