Hoping for Uninteresting Times

If there’s a New Year’s wish we can all share, it is that 2018 be as uninteresting as possible. My personal benchmark would be 1959. Ike was President, I was ten, and America had tailfins on its mind. Granted, Nikita Khrushchev seemed menacing even to a kid, and cowering beneath school desks during air raid drills didn’t seem so quaintly silly at the time. But all in all it was a pretty dull year. Would that 2018 proves to be just a boring refrain! However it goes, I wish you all good health, happy tidings and even more-inflated share prices. If there are any surprises, let them be pleasant ones, and if weather stories are going to be in the headlines, let them be about Punxsutawney Phil rather than hurricanes, droughts and mudslides. May your hold times be short and the tech support people you reach speak English and know what they are doing.

    I Like Ike…

    A man above men.
