Hi All! It’s me, Captain Univac, also known as John Novak, today is July 1, 2016, the first anniversary of my retirement from wage slavery. The theme of my first year was “65 going on 45”, and the objective was to undo the damage of the last 20 years of Working For a Living by spending a year Working For a Life. It is a subtle difference, yet very important!

Despite some early missteps that objective was largely achieved, and there have even been some who insist I overshot my goal. Today is also the first day of my next career as I begin my new job: keeping fit, talking about it, getting around, meeting lots of people, giving shoutouts to people who are doing great things, talking about really cool people I know, … and connecting people together! Not bad work if you can get it.
