re: #929 Walter L. Newton

I didn’t know you were 60? I don’t know anything about you, yet we meet this way everyday, we have shared our good times and our bad times. And when you leave me, I will not even know where to send the slippers that I will find, that will bring all the emotions flooding back in.

Yup. Pushing 61 in a serious way (May).

You (I think it was you) made a remark some months ago about programming being a “young man’s market”. Little did I know how real that phenomena is.

I tried putting in an app at Home Depot and Lowe’s, but they aren’t hiring, and have released all part time people, as well. I’m not sure what to do next, as unemployment runs out on or before my birthday.
