Meanwhile, from December 5, the second annual Disney (mostly) Resorts executive leadership reunion. Mostly retired folks, but not all. Also, some outliers like me (the lowest ranking Disney Leader) and Cheryl (36 years in HR). Everyone worked with Cheryl at some point, and for generous durations.

Not seeing jeffnoel.org’s white screen of death is a glorious sight.

Not losing 6,000+ blog posts is a remarkably blessed feeling.

Having the weirdness to publish five daily, differently-themed blog posts for 17 consecutive years is a personal mystery. The closest educated guess on why i do it is this:
