I lost my Dad on 9/11. I don’t get a lot of reach on here. But I just wanted to share a picture. He was 39. I thought he was old. I’m now in my mid 30s and I still feel like a kid.
He was a great trader. He loved markets. He loved to find a stock no one was talking about.
The first trade I ever placed was on his work computer, where he let me click the button to buy AMAT. I loved going to the office with him. It was electric.
He was the best dad. We spent hours out in the street after dinner where he’d throw “pop flys” for me to catch. Eye on the ball.
He loved watching Sponge Bob and eating cereal, wrestling with us in the living room. He just loved being around his kids so much, and we knew it. I’m so grateful I got a dad like that.
Love you, Pops.
Once schools of philosophy were captured by relativism, their doyens became readings in schools of education.
In turn those schools trained the teachers of people who became academics in faculties of science, medicine, arts, humanities, etc - decades later.
And here we are.
America’s greatest accomplishments are all downstream from our ability to advantageously re-arrange molecules. From skyscrapers to nuclear power, stealth fighters to oil refineries. Engineering is, in fact, one of the most uniquely American activities one can engage in.
I’ll just post about it early this coming week. Came up with another 3d prototype since my last dm to you. Huge difference between playing “crack the egg” once and playing it 180 times against an uncrackable egg. She called it the “Lindy hard boiled egg”. Think I’m having troubles some h1b’s…that’s another story
