Hard to beleve but 35 years ago today I put on my tweed jacket and tied my skinny tied and got into my ’71 VW microbis (‘maggie’.. still have her key in my backpack) and drove to IBM for the very first time. I was 22 years old and fresh out of college . it was the only job interview I’d ever really had..

It’s been a long strange trip for sure..15 bosses, 8 offices, 1 telephoen number,  74 coutnries, about  a million miles of air travel and a zillion really good freinds..

its been hard, but its been fun. ,, thanks to all of you out there that have made this such an interestign ride so far !

nite all, nite sam
