Starting Monday I will be selling wine. I did this about 15 years ago and loved it. I am looking forward to the change.

Happy for ya, buddy.

However, I will not accept your resignation from the Vice Presidency. You'll have to help govern part time.

I was out in a bar last night with a bunch of drones..........conversation sucked, but I won 30$ playing pool and lost count of the free drinks I won..........moral of story-drones can't play pool very well and are lousy conversationalists.....but they did make my night out very cheap Anxious

Relocated. I needed to be closer to my parents to be able to help them. They are in their 80's, and need help on a somewhat daily basis.

Congrats on the new career!

Which Binny's are you working? If I'm ever in that neck of the woods I'll stop in and bend your ear for some wine advice. Although, I usually don't get West of Rte. 47 but a couple times a year. lol
