My uncle's response to the doctor when told he may need to get his affairs in order was, "Shut up. I'm not going anywhere". I'm taking that as an excellent sign.
Still very angry at the situations keeping me here instead of being up there. People rest far too much on my shoulders and I need to start breaking them of it.
@matigo You'll then need to hire a PR person named "Sources" to maintain a sense of mystique in news stories.
@indigo It's good to know there's a simple solution to it. Like you, I do not find YouTube links to be overly helpful.
@matigo It's easy to sleep in mine until the phone rings.
"Hi, I did stupid thing and predictable result happened, Help"
"Hi, I'm Corey with some local computer company calling on behalf of some customer. Is the box in their closet like running Linux or something?"
"Hi, I'm Josh with big name Internet company. I just replaced some customer's router with one of our Netgears and nothing works now. They said that stuff has to be done to it and, well, we don't really do that so I was hoping you'd walk me through it.
And so on.
@matigo It's fun finding a 20-something and telling him/her tales of the olden days. Like how you could go to a store and buy an entire box of save icons.

@matigo This is not to say he was perfect where UI stuff was concerned (The old OSX Notes app for instance)
