None taken seriously ....... I have ample experience dealing with elderly closely related individuals, I know the age factor and it helps me getting ready for it.
It hurts less when you don't have these false expectations. Live the reality and things get easier.
My other niche is more close to me because I and Joe are same there, on equal footing (though his flowery angraiji is a challenge but still I get to learn) ..... we are not favorites of anyone and we are not hated by anyone. Freedom to say what we want to say within reasonable respectful bounds. I like writing my mind there.
Okay now I think we have sufficiently derailed this thread ...... anything you want to add please move to whatever.
Smooth ...
