I really never knew what I was doing when I was doing it...

...and I am so glad to not be doing whatever it was any more.


Retirement is a good fit for me...just wish I was healthier so I could really enjoy it.

For all of you that served our country, my sincere thanks and appreciation!

-Raymond

Same problem here. Very hard to replace the income starting in a new field. I'm not necessarily looking to live out of a suitcase but wouldn't mind some travel.

I'm guessing it went the way of Armadillo World Headquarters and the such. The winds of change have been blowing here and are now at hurricane velocity.

Sean, MSG is long gone. There isn't much left on 6th St that was there from the early to mid-80s. The Driskill is naturally still there. Esther's Follies is still there (different location but same irreverent comedy, fantastic magician also). Maggie Mae's is still there. But not much else that I can think of. The clubs seem to change frequently. I don't go there anymore and haven't for years, except to go to Esther's Follies. As Yogi said, "Nobody goes there anymore. It's too crowded."

All great stuff. Thanks for posting. I'm still working for the same pharmaceutical company (3 years). The first 6-8 months were awesome. Now I just hope to get thru each day. If I had known how screwed up the place was. I would have run the other way. Fast !
