Re: RANT - Worst of times

I really don't have the "I can't/I won't" attitude.  I have a case of 
discouragement from what I saw in the my world.  This is not the first
time 
that I lost my job, but you have to agree that it does get harder to find 
work as you grow older.  What does that mean?  It means that I am
listening 
to your advice and keep trying till I get it.  Thanks for a great advice.

And you are right, 50 is not old.  Old is 15 years older than what I am. 
Damn, that would have made a good "Today's Thought"  :)
