An older guy retired from mil aviation maintenance to take my family trans-ocean sailing. Recently airBnB’ing in Mexico with an eye to settle somewhere not too hot, not far from the beach.

“And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter”

In keeping with their embrace and transformation of The Blues, Led Zeppelin lyrics are hopeful in the face of sadness.

    The astronauts are not stranded, merely delayed.

    I have long known that plastic “recycling” in less-developed countries meant bury or burn. Now it is becoming apparent that the same applies to developed countries too. Six percent actually recycled is worse than a joke, due recyclers’ contribution to micro plastic pollution.
    Waste-to-energy is the only way we’ll ever get a handle on the problem. Hopefully the dioxin-like byproducts will kill fewer of us than micro plastics themselves.

    I am looking forward to the anxious and exciting frisson of waiting for Monday, when the Edmonton Oilers will lift “the hardest trophy to win in professional sports”, the coveted Stanley Cup, to trophy of the NHL!
    Meanwhile, the hopes of me and my fellow Canucks may well be dashed before the weekend barely gets started.

    When did you know a career was either the perfect or the worst match for your personality?

    I'm trying to give someone advice on choosing a career that will suit them better than the one they're in and hate. I wanted to get together a list of good questions for them to ask themselves so they can use the answers to compare options like "do you prefer to work sitting or moving around," "do you want to not work weekends"...

    I can well imagine that is difficult to be passionate about some installation’s heating and cooling system. But problem solving IS something that many people are passionate about. Good distinction!
