In case anyone is interested and is anywhere near Northern Virginia, I'm sure you can still catch this party in action. I'm guessing it might still be going on right now at a little before 10 pm their time. Dad opted for a happy hour at a pub rather than the standard required attendance luncheon where everyone eats cake, makes small talk, and really just wishes this old guy would go away. I can't say that I blame him. This event was originally going to be called a "Marine Corps Beverage Call" in honor of his early service thirty-odd years ago, but I guess that didn't fit the silly graphics. He's officially got a few more days, but I can't imagine any work will get done, so Happy Retirement, Dad.
