It's funny. I was just kind of going with the flow at the time. I'm not sure what my expectations were, especially professionally.

I was kind of the same way. I am where I am not so much because of a grand plan but rather the result of a lot of individual decisions. I'm hoping to attack the situation differently in this next decade to see if I get better results.

I still kind of hold out hope that they can take away a professorship or a Super Bowl if they find a person cheating on the salary cap.




Sorry to hear about your daughter's issues. That's got to be tough because there's not a lot you can do about it. Hopefully she'll get traction this coming decade.
