The merry-go-round is the only ride I go on at the carnival or fair. The rest would give me a heart attack the very first moment. I’m actually there for the corn dogs or a gyro.
The job may have its ups and downs, but at least you’re assured of a stable spot on the merry-go-round of life. (I sent you an email to a gmail account I found in my files. Hope it’s still active.)

I would need motion sickness pills. Even a clock is a little fast for me.

History is really not linear. It is circular.

They are ever-going, but keep getting back to square one (were there a square in the first place–a neat mess-up 🙂 )

I understand. Once I had 20 years I stuck with it until got full 30. I was burned out at 20 though.
