Elliott Brack

I went to Elliot Brack's funeral yesterday. He was a friend. And he was quite a character. He was one of the first people I met outside of work when I moved to Georgia. He was sort of a variation of the main character of Tom Wolfe's "A Man In Full". I used to say that Elliott and I had a 50-50 relationship. He told me what to do and I did it -50-50. He was a fixture at my church and involved me in all sorts of things. Including the organization of our "Civic Breakfast" where we invited leaders from the community for information and opinions of community. It goes on and on. He will be missed. https://www.crowellbrothers.com/obituaries/Elliott-Earl-Brack?obId=48440319

Hard to believe I have been working at my current job for 7 years as of Saturday. I have been sitting at the same desk with the same monitor, same chair, same everything (almost) for 7 years (except for 4 months in Antarctica). It is a year longer than I have stayed at any other job. Usually, I pack up and leave just to get into new more interesting problems or opportunities. They have said they were sorry to see me go at every job. I am pretty tired of that song and dance. I have held two jobs previously for 6 years, and of course a few others for lesser time. Everything is relative.

This is a pic of Ultima I took a few months back. She looks happy under her fruit tree.
