    Retired 11 years ago at 55 years old and never regretted it or ever looked back, you only get one chance at life. I too dig the Art Deco odd ducks, why be the same when you can be different !

    Ok - sorry for dragging out the suspense.
    So, as I originally posted I like Odd Duck rides.

    I also, shared that after 47 years I am retiring from Corporate America, starched shirts etc but I didn’t share what I did for a living.

    The only profession since 1978 has been an Industrial Marketing - Sales Consultant.
    A long time. I’ve been fortunate to have company cars all those years and December 31, 2025 - no more.
    2025 Chevy Trail Blazer the last 5 months/ 17,000 miles goodbye.

    So what’s that got to do with anything ?

    Hear me out. I thought let’s go back in time.
    So I did, and this brings it full circle.


    Drum roll ……
    Everyone had a 1-25 Chance to guess and many guesses which has been fun. No one has been tipped off. It’s been fun fellas.

    Winner Winner Chicken Dinner IS ….
