I really, really appreciated both the questions and the honesty (with humor) of the answers. While I love your posts, I think this will deepen my affection for the person behind the personality. Happy Birthday. 32! Lord, forty years separate us in time, not reality.

There's a clarity of mind and soul that comes from looking into the void unmedicated and unintoxicated. I haven't had more than two drinks in a sitting in over a dozen years. I joke about weed gummies, but I've only gobbled a handful, and never loved the experience. Batman has two superpowers: obscene wealth and indomitable will. We can still aspire to the latter.

It's been a real pleasure following your work and getting to know you. Keep doing what you're doing.

Happy Birthday.

Happy birthday. I’m happy to learn that you also appreciate an Oreo ice cream cake. This has been my go-to since I was 5 and it still warms my heart with every bite.

I love your "walk 2 hours in one direction" ritual. I should try that. I always walk in a loop. Somehow my thoughts on life always end up where they started. 🤔

Happy Birthday. And thanks for giving us all the answers.

A follow up birthday question: where did you trek on your birthday morning? I think birthday walks are a very good idea. I used to them but forgot about it! Now scheduling one for my birthday in March. PS Happy birthday!!!

Happy birthday, thanks for the answers and book recommendation! Btw, 32 is 100000 in binary, the most zeros you’ll get till 64.
