well old pal, that's it. I'm hanging it up, walking away. always said I'd stop at 200, and I've never been a man to go back on my word. that was my last post. it's been a career of ups & downs, but all I wanna do is go out quietly and retire. being out in the posting field these past few days has taught me that I'm getting to old, and I gotta leave it to the young up-and-comers now. up-and-comers like you, Mac. so don't worry about me, cos while it hurts to leave the life behind, I'll at least be physically comfortable for the rest of my days.
