It’s a bit premature, taking a backwards look at 2020 – but everybody wants it over NOW. I’m just like everybody.

In January yours truly predicted it would be …


The Year of Tech

… As always, any ‘tech’ for Baby Boomers is medical tech. I’ve written about the silliness and shortsightedness of this ad nauseum…

It was sort of the year of tech – but not for the reasons I’d anticipated. Millions of older folks, ones that hadn’t been technologically savvy, became technologically savvy – simply to survive. The virtual world became the real world out of necessity.

The craziness will be over and we’ll be able to go back to being our crazy selves.

I’ve recently been using Substack to find new music to listen to. That’s probably not quite what its founders had in mind, but it has a ton of newsletters written by people who just really love music. It’s less professional music criticism and more “hey, this album was great, give it a listen.”

No News News & Fake News

I’m not linking to any more dumb articles. Or fake news. Fake news to me can be broken up into two categories: News that’s half-fake and half-not fake. There might be some good advice in an article, but if it also has a lot of bad advice – then no link. News that’s fobbed off
