It's December, isn't it? Normally, December is filled with parties, and lights, and presents, and snow, and song, and bells, and family celebration.

Movie theaters, retail shops, bars and restaurants closed (these are all the places where we socialize together). Stuck at home. Working from home, distant from colleagues and supervisors …

My Best Move in the Past Year
The best thing I did in the last year and a bit was to join Ricochet.com. By doing that, I opened up a whole new universe of erudition and wisdom (and humor, which is often lacking in today's world). I have met, both on-line and in person, people who think like I do, admire what …
