Who likes a complicated menu?
Not me. I usually prefer a simple menu and simple food, though I once fell in with some more sophisticated diners. They would often give the waiters a hard time, as if being picky was proof of their refined taste. To undercut their pretension, if my friend saw hors d'ouvres on the menu, he would ask, "Who wants Horse's Doovers?"

Not today, but recently, I went to a Mexican restaurant, which has a great system: order some beers and a selection of food comes to the table. No need to choose a main dish, just snack on a continuous supply of dips, beans, chips, scrambled egg, tacos, etc etc.

The answer to this question will decide how much Drano I I drink. What does the over forty crowd now know about Nick Fuentes?

Who? Is he a golfer or something?

I didn't know anything about him until he met with Trump and Kanye.

I was let go from my job today after nearly six years with the company, and just before Christmas. I spent the day applying for unemployment, registering for Medicaid and affiliated medical programs for the new year to cover my routine medications and appointments, updated my static resume and LinkedIn and Indeed profiles, contacted all of my doctors to see which providers they'll accept, and researched and contacted a free government-based career counseling center for my city.

It's quite a challenge finding a new career at age 41. I feel ill-equipped to work but I networked with a few CEOs I know locally and they each agreed that I'm selling myself short and downplaying my skill set. They were confident I could easily start any of several of my own companies or a consulting firm based on my experience, but I need something more stable than that.

There are hundreds of thousands of job listings nationally for WFH careers. The challenge is identifying the keywords which will yield a satisfying new venture. Perhaps this is for the best. The stress at my former job was insurmountable. Maybe the next job that awaits me will be measurably more rewarding.
