I'll check my numbers. Left Malvern Collegiate Institute (grade 9-12 high school) in 1980, likely at age 18 unless you failed a grade or two. Highly unlikely you ever skipped a grade. 1980-18=1962. 2024-1962=62, or so. Could be 63, depending on details. Closer?

"Bottom line? No wonder 62-ish year old not-retired ...

 Interesting dig attempt from one who worked for more than a decade longer:  just how old were you when you finally hung it up?  75?  76?
 

 Very unlikely he can afford much of an upgrade."

 Interesting dig attempt from one who definitely knows that one of his hobbies is running a dedicated race car (or two).

condo that is smaller than my kitchen, family room and one bathroom. Heck, your "home" is not much larger than my garage. One thing for sure, you don't suffer from claustrophobia.

 How big is one's bedroom once our eyes are closed?  /s
 

Got to go now, I need to prep for some flying today.

 In the borrowed CAP again, most likely.
 

I passed an IFR checkout yesterday too! Then in a few days we leave for 2 weeks at sea and a few interesting port stops. When are you driving a race car again, or going to a warm spot on a winter break?

 Seems like someone forgot about skiing as another pastime. /s

I don't borrow CAP aircraft. I am privileged to fly missions authorized and funded by USAF. Today it was demo flights for 2 high school students with aviation career interests. That is most of my flying these days.
I don't think Alan has mentioned skiing in a long time. He has local hills, I go to Beaver Creek/Vail, comparable to Whistler-Blackcomb. We will be there for 2 weeks again this year.
I am just guessing, but Alan's company HQ is in Ontario. If he is really working for them he is working from home.
