Not Dead Yet: ...and One or Two Other Good Things About Retirement

by Patrick Fanning

Congratulations! After years of drudgery in the respectable working world, you've earned the right to unlimited free time-a luxury also enjoyed by the homeless, the incarcerated, and bimbo heiresses everywhere. With all this newfound time for meditation, medication, and reflection, you might've already made a few profound discoveries. Perhaps you've learned of your spouse's plan to drive you crazy, or just how bad daytime TV can be. If there's more to retirement, author Patrick Fanning sets out to find it in this irreverent guide to life in the slow lane.

Most excellent. He calls it bathroom reading, I used it to go to sleep for several nights. Quite funny (some laugh out loud and wake the wife) thought provoking and in my case appropriate. Couldn't recommend it more for soon to be or already retired. The younger folks might not appreciate it as much.
I'm keeping it for browsing through again.
