Wow!! Fantastic!! I am sooo happy for you and him!!
In India servicemen seem to wield a kind of power over the people. They would never want to retire from their 'non-work'
great 55 and congrats.
Wow, Lou, I am so happy for you both! The best 55 ever!
So, in your mind is this good news or are you ambivalent?
Very well writtern 55, I must add.

The truth in this case is a gazillion times better than fiction.
