Last spring, I started tutoring recent immigrants. As a volunteer, I teach writing and reading... all skills needed for legal naturalization. My new friends work harder than anyone I have known. I can be angry, or I can be helpful. This works for me.

I won a cash award at work for not taking any sick leave. It was handed out at a Christmas party and most of the staff just laughed. If we didn't use it, we lose it, so I looked like a fool. What can I say, I liked my job.

$5 Santa dollars for selling the most newspaper subscriptions. I promently lost the $5, and 6 months later, I discovered the $5. It was like winning twice.

67 years old here, and I do not fit that profile. I rarely listen to music from my teens and 20s. I would find it maddening. According to Spotify, I hit the top 3% of time spent listening to music, so being stuck in those post pubescent years would be Hell on earth and very sad.
