When I’ve asked colleagues what they intend to do after they retire, the stock answer is, “Whatever I want!”
That’s a bullshit answer, so I ask follow-up questions. “After eating Ben & Jerry’s ice cream for breakfast, how are you going to spend the rest of the day?”

When my doctor tells me that I need to lose weight, I could tell him that I’ve tried 6 meals per day, 1 meal per day, eat early, eat late, low carb, low fat, joined a gym, bought an exercise bike, and everything else. I don’t tell him that. Instead, I say, “No shit. Unless you want to write a script, let’s move on.”
My doctor is about my age, used to wrestle for St. Ignatius and knows what’s up.
It only took a month for the federal government to propose rules to ban gas stoves. Do you suppose the gas stoves that can still be sold will be the expensive ones?
