Wahoo

Sounds like a great day. We did a whale watching cruise years ago in Lahaina (Maui). Need to do it again 👍

If you’re interested in a Givi Maxius 56 ltr topcase, I still have one I used on my vstrom. Mark didn’t want any of the cases when he bought the Strom a few years ago. It’s in great condition. $150 (includes mounting brackets for a 2012 vstrom) If you’re interested, I’ll look for photos (it’s currently stored in my garage attic ) Edit: found a photo

What transmission did you use? Delorean or Porsche ? That car sounds totally badass. 👍

Congrats Jim ! Welcome to the club 👍

Woke mine up from its winter nap today. My luck, it’ll snow for the next month up here on the shores of Lake Erie 🙄

85% of our ss is taxable by the fed but they’ve been talking about eliminating that. Who knows. Would be nice Ohio doesn’t tax SS benefits (regardless of your income level) so that’s a good thing

When I retired a little over 5 years ago at age 62 and 2 months, I ran the numbers on taking SS then or waiting until I was 66 and 6 months (my full retirement age). My so-called “break even point” was age 79. Figuring I may not live that long, I started collecting SS immediately and left my very healthy tsp account alone (that’s the federal government version of a 401k) I collect a substantial federal pension and my wife gets a smaller pension from the school (same one as Tonik) five years later, I still haven’t touched a dime in the tsp which continues to increase every month 👍

Merry Christmas buddy ! 🎄

I’ll never tell 🤣
