You have been busy.
Enjoyed reading your efforts thus far in parts 1 thru 3.  You do a nice job, even though I might not be the best person to absorb your thoughts.  There won&#039;t be a quiz will there?  

Just a thought.  Should the desire to write, author, teach and instruct become overwhelming, you might well find a home in the Community college or beyond.  Well done.</description>

Big decision.  Your blog leaves me with the feeling that you have a choice, which makes it a much bigger decision than if you are being given no choice in the matter.  &quot;Times, they are a changing&quot; and you have been very successful in keeping up and a head of the changes, which have sometimes left us behind.  You have many skills which you can offer TI or someone else or use for yourself and family with the Watts Lab endeavors.

Of course I don&#039;t know the terms of the retirement incentive, but assume you will have some health benefits.  With 15 years or so before Social Security and Medicare benefits are available and with your responsibilities to the others in the family, that is an important matter.  However we all are in dismay and wonderment as to the status of those programs in the future as well as the ability of any corporation to carry out the promises made to retirees.  So in the end it might be your own abilities and efforts necessary to insure whatever lifestyle you have planned anyway.

Whatever decision you arrive at, we will continue to believe in you and always love all of you.  We will make every effort not to be a burden nor add weight to your responsibilities in the future, however I guess that is another unknown.  (So far so good)

		<description>Steve,

Sorry I didn&#039;t find your 30 year announcement sooner.  Congratulations and well done.  I couldn&#039;t be prouder of my favorite son-in-law for the success and accomplishments you have achieved both in business and as a Husband and Father.  We wish you well, as long as you go beyond 30 years with your present company and success in your new endeavors, Watts Lab, Inc. along with other members of your family.

Your in-law Dad</description>
