Thats called worrying about the hereafter John, you get there, and then 
you can't remember what you came here after. :(

Seems like its happening more and more as the years fly by.  When I was 
65, & beginning to think about retiring, which it took me another 21 
months to do, I had no expectation of still being here 17+ years later 
and in fairly good mental health. (I think)  But not so good physically, 
scoliosis has crept up on me, combined with collapsing disks, so I'm 
about 5 to 6" shorter than I was at 25.  But we've found a pill that 
helps with the sciatic pain, so I can keep on keep'in on most of the 
time.  I'm ok, as long as I can do it at "my" speed. :)
