There is one thing that I see as being different as the years pass. In older generations, families were closer geographically if not in spirit. Most lived within an easy travelling distance from each other. That was the case with my grandparents, great grandparents, and my parents. Today, the family is spread far and wide. I have a sister in upstate NY, a brother in Delaware, and two more brothers in opposite ends of Florida. Parents are gone along with all but one of their siblings. So, I sit here in southeastern PA mostly alone as far as family goes. No close relations close by except a daughter. The upside is that I have many wonderful friends in this city that folks seem to love to hate. Long ago, I thought about where I would like to go when I retired. I came to realize that I am already there. This is where my friends are. I know the area intimately. The old cliché about the butcher, the baker and the candlestick maker is so true. I have no desire to have to figure that all out again.
All in all, this time of the year is a time to reflect on the past and to give thanks to God for giving me another year on Earth.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
