Last But Not Least....

   Four hundred and six. That is how many blogs I have posted while being a part of the IHC. four hundred and seven if you include this one. I'm pretty proud of that, As far as I can tell, I never missed a week. This is one of the few requirements of the IHC that I can say I actually fulfilled. So this is a bitter sweet blog. After this one last blog I am no longer required to keep an online presence. Not sure how I feel about that because I really do enjoy blogging, if not for the IHC but for myself. Only time will tell I guess,,,

   A few last little tidbits...

   First off, happy Valentines day to all of you (a day late but oh well).

   Second, yesterday was twenty six years at my job. Feb 14,2000 I started at Competition Chev and twenty six years later I am still there. So many memories, so many people I have met and worked with, it is truly a good place to work. Thank you Mr Blair Polack for putting up with me all these years.

   And lastly, to all of you in the Chinese new year banquet demo next weekend, my primary hope is that you savor it. Take in every sight, sound, smell, laugh, cry, temporary madness, tranquil moment, all of it. I have had some life altering moments while being a part of these demos, they have changed parts of me forever (for the good!). I am now living vicariously through you all. I am now a spectator in your moment of glory. And I will enjoy your moment in the sun knowing how the excitement of being on display is one of the most thrilling things I have ever experienced. Shine my friends, shine like the stars you truly are. 


   So this is it, I am having a hard time closing this off because it feels like I am closing a very important chapter of my life. Once I post this, my path forward is unclear. One step at a time, that is where I will start.....
