Now What? Allen Rubens

Retirement is something most people who aren't dead have to face in one form or another. It's confusing, scary, and definitely life altering. Even though you may know that day is coming, there's no way you can prepare yourself for the day after it does. So with the help of 36 ridiculous essays and a hundred pages of stupid logic, "Now What" has taken on the responsibility to inform newly out of work people how easy it is to have fun doing something, which is extremely important because most retirees are afraid they'll be doing nothing."You can reach me at 1-800- Jurassic Park" suggests that since you have time on your hands you may want to learn about new technology. Just don't afraid of the people who understand it better than you do. Kids who chew bubble gum and read comic books are downright dangerous."You're going to stick a what up my where?" of course talks about doing the doctor stuff you couldn't do because you were too busy working. And "If your body is a temple mine is a Holiday Inn" talks about the need for treating yourself like you actually matter. Work is over, and it's time to do something for yourself you didn't have time to do because of work restraints, like breathing and teaching your dog not to scoot across the dining room carpet when you have guests for dinner."Now What?" will inform, entertain, and help you painlessly relive your past as you get ready to live your future. Retirement is something to be enjoyed, not feared, unless of course you're having lunch at a Mexican restaurant with people you don't know.
