I'm not retired either, but my temp job (held since mid-July with lots and lots of overtime) is winding down. I've got til the end of next week max. But it's lasted a lot longer than the 6-8 weeks they originally promised and when the work picks up again after Christmas (Martin Luther King Day, Washington's Birthday, St. Patrick's Day) I may get a call again. They like me -- they liked me a lot.

At least Tom's got a project starting the day before my last day, so we should have some sort of income continuity.

Didja ever get that article? Sorry -- I didn't keep a copy, so if it's gone, it's gone.
