   Book post.

2. As of midnight last night, I am officially retired.

   1. Congrats!

   2. You are my aspirational goal. Soak it in

   3. So what now? Just gonna continue being a mensch but without the pay? Congrats on reaching the milestone, citizen, and enjoy your time, it all belongs to you now.

      1. What now? My third career: sports announcing. I do public address in Gettysburg for football, wrestling, and track. I also do public address for track in Onida, and last week I started doing public address for baseball in Pierre. I also do livestream broadcasts of volleyball and basketball in Gettysburg.

         Oh, and I'll probably spend a little time with Mrs. A, too. She seems like a nice person.

   4. Congratulations!

   5. Congrats!!

   6. What was your final official duty?

      1. The Sunday night worship service in Gettysburg. To be technical, my last official duty was turning out the lights in the fellowship hall.

   7. Congratulations, Reverend Emeritus. You’ll always be the chaplain around here.

   8. Congrats Jeff

      1. They're so quick to demote him to just Jeff....

   9. Congratulations Padre!

   10. What wonderful news! I hope you enjoy this next phase--it sounds like you have some excellent plans for how to spend your time!!

3. I've had a little side project going on now for a little over 2 months now.

   I have made a YT channel creatively named Andrew's Rugby Jerseys where I showcase my jersey collection in <60second shorts.

   1. Fun with Flags Jerseys with Dr. Sheldon Cooper McGoo

      1. Exactly!

         I described it to my brother as "Fun with Flags - with jerseys!"

4. well, I'm surprised

   ...the Twins also lead the Major Leagues in runs (332), team batting average (.265) and team wRC+ (122) since they bottomed out at 7-13 on April 21.

   1. I'm kind of getting tired of all the stats that ignore the first twenty games of the year.

      1. I was more tired of the stats of the first twenty games

5. I get a lot of industry related emails from randos all over the world trying to sell me their this or that.

   I also get so many of the emails, but honestly the phone calls are worse for me. Every...single...day... somebody calls knowing they can save me money on credit card processing. Also, Door Dash is stalking me something fierce. I also get TON of texts from politicians on both sides of the aisle. Spam filter catches them, but man... there are a lot.

6. Hello from the beach in sunny Vancouver. Happy Canada Day for those who celebrate.

   1. Give my regards to the totem poles.

   2. Interestingly, we were on beaches (Rialto and Second) more or less opposite of you today.

      Tomorrow, Mount Rainier.

      1. Ha, we were also on Second Beach

7. It's true -- Madame Web is that bad. Even free is too expensive. "Showing, not telling"? No one involved with this film knew this, obviously
