Answered some questions I didn’t know I had:
The Police, Synchronicity II
The workaday world, some events in my life, and this song
With respect to an app store, well-played, Microsoft!
Your move, Apple.
The Cutter - Echo and the Bunnymen
A second song Shuffle Play dredged up that I haven’t heard in a very long time. I’m sure this is the first song of theirs I was familiar with until I rediscovered New Wave late in the 80s. Yeah, I’m never on time. Later in the 90s at the record store I started doing musical archeology to understand what had blown my mind in the decade before.
Frankly, I unashamedly revisit the past frequently via music. It’s my favorite form of time travel.
Enjoy.

A lovely night for a pint
This includes my Dad’s favorite chair in a favorite room.
I took this shot, visiting my mom, a few months after he passed away in 2015.
Naturally, the Photos widget chose Father’s Day 2021 to present it to me from all the images it could have picked.
To all the fathers, to all the people who have fathers, to all the people contemplating becoming fathers, this day is richly varied, emotionally. I’m sure my experiences and yours overlap at least a little. I feel you.
If anything, being a father has shown me so many ways to improve who I am and what I do in the world. It is supremely humbling.
On this day, I wish you peace, joy, and love.
Struggling super hard with organization. As an ADHD’er, this is career defining/limiting. I haven’t found the method or the tool that sticks past overwhelm.
Is it just me? On Windows 10, an Intel Core i5 can’t seem to keep up with Teams, much less other things you may wish to work on while in a meeting. Have run into this on laptops and desktops of different manufacture. I don’t have this issue on a Core i5 MacBook Pro.
Shout out to Tony, who I have missed these many years.
I explained learning about The Game to a colleague at work. So, naturally I’ve lost many, many times in rapid succession.
Miss you, brother
