Abstract: In Japan, we have a custom to perform the last lecture when you retire from university professor. The author is not a university professor, but did the equivalent in RIKEN in Japanese as a retiring chief scientist. This talk is the English version of it. Usually, the last lecture is to look back his/her research life and accomplishments. I do so seriously and comically for my over 40 years in hadron physics in KEK, CERN, FNAL and BNL; how I started my research, what have been achieved, and what I have learned to attain enlightenment. In Large Seminar Room from 1:00pm. Coffee and cookies after the talk.
