As we get older we sometimes begin to doubt our ability to "make a difference" in the world. It is at these times that our hopes are boosted by the remarkable achievements of other "seniors" who have found the courage to take on challenges that would make many of us wither. Harold Sclumberg is such a person.

VERY INSPIRING!

I've often been asked, 'What do you old folks do now that you're retired'? Well..I'm fortunate to have a chemical engineering background, and one of the things I enjoy most is turning beer, wine, Scotch, and margaritas into urine.

Good one Tom! I had my four year old in a store with me today, and a man walks past us carrying two six packs of beer.My boy looks up at me and says "Look Dad, football sodas!" I don't know who laughed harder- the man or me!
