Memories and comments about computer career, art, family, and life in general – not so long ago, but gone forever.
As great events roiled the world from 1990 to 2010, normal busy lives continued. I remember ours fondly, chaotically, nostalgically, and with a patina of current philosophic comments. None involve famous events or people. Perhaps this is a little like Boethius’ Consolations of Philosophy. I too will be executed (by fate) sometime in the not so distant future. Meanwhile, writing can be good for mind and soul. Work without stress. There is advice, but no get rich quick schemes. No cosmic revelations. We made our way and fulfilled modest ambitions. We were and continue to be happy, appreciative, and thankful for all those recent times gone by. One need not conquer the world nor win battles against great odds to have a satisfying personal, professional, and family existence.
