Retirement is Great!

x
For a few of us, success sometimes actually comes after retirement. Granted, it's rare, but not unheard of.

Even rarer, though, is two rapid-fire success stories in the span of a minute or two.

Yesterday, former President George W. Bush spoke to a group of high school seniors in New Mexico. He described retirement as "liberating", and explained that he had recently been out walking the dog, near where he lives in a Dallas suburb.

I doubt he knew when he grabbed the leash that he was approaching the pinnacle of his management career.

During the walk, Barney, the former first dog, did what dogs doo- and the former leader of the free world found himself with a plastic bag on his hand.

Stand up, close the bag, a Zip-Loc I'm sure, hand it off to the nearest Secret Service agent- MISSION (actually) ACCOMPLISHED!!!

Hold on! Think about this in a little more depth. In the brief span of 60-90 seconds, George W. Bush, for the first time in his life, actually avoided stepping in shit when given the opportunity AND also encountered a mess he was successfully able to clean up!

A momentous, once-in-a-lifetime occasion- sadly. Arbusto/Spectrum 7 Oil companies, the Texas Rangers baseball team, the United States of America, and the World should have been so lucky.
