The Last Bass Outpost

Tex-Mex music has been around at least as long as ska.

Anyway...saw this pic in my FB feed. Nick Lowe, Wanda Jackson and Elvis Costello, taken last night. Holy crap! Nick Lowe has turned into Orville Redenbacher!

I listen to music while working, that is the secret. It helps me concentrate. I know that sounds weird, but (wo)man is a creature of habit. When I do work (and most of my work is either writing or reading unless I'm in a video conference call), I get distracted by the natural sound ambience of a quiet room if there is no music running (I see dead people ... hear things!).. And I often do power play, like several albums of one artist, currently  abox of remastered King's X which never did much for me, but I'm finally getting the hang of it!

That said, retirement is almost fully here. As of this month, I'm an officially retired partner of Clifford Chance. I'm turning 63 this year and with CC - it's part of the package every partner buys into - by the end of fifty at the latest "succession discussions" commence, the iceberg needs to melt at the top to make room for younger generation partners. I'm from now on what we call an Of Counsel, basically a freelancer to the firm. I might do this a few more years, let's see.

Nice looking P. I like how it turned out!
