Looking forward to retirement
As the summer wanes and the days get shorter, so does the time before my retirement. I'm looking forward to the greater flexibility in my schedule if not my pocketbook. But I can certainly enjoy the thoughts recently sent to me by my oldest brother Bernell.

I read in the paper the other day that a senior citizen can take a full load of classes at CSULB and pay something like $16 for the entire semester (not including lab fees or books of course). Richard couldn't understand why anyone would want to go back to school but I thought that it sounded like fun. I wonder how many other universities and colleges do this?
