I'm usually optimistic, Packman, but I still view the situation cautiously, despite the assurances of the city mucky-wucks. Past history has shown reckless investments that cost bundles, and it's hard to forsee pure hearts in the years ahead. But we shall see. Hopefully.

Still smarting from the loss of healthcare, although I'm fortunate and have Medicare. Remember that police and fire personnel did not pay into SS or Medicare and those who did not work for a number of years after retirement do not get Medicare at all. Those guys are hurting.
