Great retirement gifts

Remember that old television program, "This is your life?" Try putting something similar together as part of your retirement party planning. Instead of a live show, however, the magic of computers means that you can assemble a series of photos, music and voiceovers and create a PowerPoint presentation. Set it up on a laptop or other computer and let it run on a continuous loop. That way, people at the retirement party who want to watch it can do so at their convenience, and others can converse or reminisce. Putting presentations on a CD makes great retirement gifts.
