    I knew you were a retired food scientist but didn't know you invested such delicacies - cool!

    I had a friend who claimed to have invented the Cup-a-Soup. He hadn't, but it was better than telling girls he cleaned out the vats on the night shift at Batchelors Soup factory.

    Most days it feels like cat herding.

    I talk to people, build relationships, and then push paper around so they don't outlive their money.

    Providing immersive music and movie experiences for 4 decades.

    I always make a joke of it as my wife is an attorney that prosecutes child abuse for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Kinda goes like...."yeah, I sell speakers for a living and my wife saves lives". Definitely puts things into perspective when I get freaked over sales volume or any issues that come up in my world.
