Thanks for your advice Tony. The expression "s#%t happens" gets used lots in my business. Also Murphy's Law kicks in often; that b@st@rd shows up frequently. I'm selfemployed, so I hope to be too busy to worry about this.

I'm 59 and I've noticed many in this age range on people's posts. Perhaps it's just a function of demographics and the bell curve. I forget my university Sociology lessons. Any demographers here know which year is the largest baby boomer cohort?
