no, it's about the advent of AI making just about every field I work in redundant.
If I'm lucky, I'll just manage to slide into retirement without having to think of some other way to run a business.
It's going to be three long years. This year looks almost sorted, so two to go.
You be around in early April? I'll be meeting some new in-laws and grands in Shark River Hills. Probably tryna see Charlie and Mo in Mt. Laurel. Coffee?

So sorry to hear about your dad. It will take a while for feelings to settle down a little. Can't believe my mom has been gone 7 years this last October and I'm still navigating all the paperwork and all her possessions around the house . Things just pop up here and there.
OMG...it's shocking. Since the start of the pandemic (time stamp, no correlation), we've lost 4 parents and an aunt who was a second mother. Paper everywhere. Tubs and tubs of crap in the basement...very few of them are marked.
This process has effectively stopped our buying anything that we don't think our kids would want. That's the bar. Would someone be upset if their sibling gets it? (hopefully not, but it's the notion of attachment/value). I don't intend to go soon, but when I do, I'm hoping to leave the place "broom clean"...with a trashcan on the curb.
We're a long way from being close to that...
It's sad...a lifetime of memories to 1-800-GOT-JUNK
A couple years ago when all the kids were out of the house, we sold or donated all our memories and downsized everything to what could fit in a small POD, and that was still too much.
(of course, had to buy new furniture to fill the new place...but still 90% less "stuff")

Jul 16, 2002 for me officially, but listening about a year before that.

Funny to think that back in the day we were the training ground for Russian hackers.
