“And I look forward to seeing all of you in four or five years when we have the next Nellie retirement party in another town.”
Gregg Popovich
“The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. I mean, life is tough. It takes up a lot of your time. What do you get at the end of it? A Death! What's that, a bonus? I think the life cycle is all backwards. You should die first, get it out of the way. Then you live in an old age home. You get kicked out when you're too young, you get a gold watch, you go to work. You work forty years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement. You do drugs, alcohol, you party, you get ready for high school. You go to grade school, you become a kid, you play, you have no responsibilities, you become a little baby, you go back into the womb, you spend your last nine months floating......and you finish off as an orgasm.”
George Carlin
“He played at the highest level and he taught me the way the game was supposed to be played. The game was never forced on me. But I wanted to be just like Dad. Guys from the Giants were always around. Phil Simms lived close by. He was over the house a lot and I used to always go to his son Chris' birthday parties. I used to go to the all games but I don't remember them. I was only 3 when he retired.”
Ryan Neill
“The only thing missing from the retirement party for Blair was a gold clock. It's quite clear that there's an orderly handover taking place. What we saw is the new leader.”
Paul Kenny
“The idea for the work party grew out of offers of help from alumni and retired faculty who gathered at memorial services held for crash victims.”
Gary Straquadine
“Dino has pledged to the party, and he did that a long time ago. He will stand by us and help retire that debt.”
Chris Vance
“In the old days the people at the senior centers were white American women, usually 75 years old or older, who played Bingo or participated in parties. Now they are newly retired seniors who are either pursuing a second career and staying up in their computer skills, taking a second language or there to meet others.”
