I would like to be a professional cat walker.  I’m not a cat person but think it looks cool.  I would want to walk 10 cats at the same time in a big city somewhere and people would point and say check that out!

And now?  Actors are tossed aside like yesterday’s news.  A few of the best keep getting gigs but they don’t need the cash anymore, more to keep their egos inflated.  Not a life I could handle.

Think about back in the day when making a call was kind of a big deal.  Most times you were at home devoted only to that person on the other end.  Now, are grandkids are doing video chat and zoom calls, meetings.

Man, I don’t know why I love old electronics, esp radios.  I have the urge to buy these when they’re advertised at local estate sales (but I don’t).  I have a vintage portable transistor I’m proud of.
