We had a pretty laid back Christmas. I invited a buddy, former room mate, former boss over for steaks. We each had a T-bone steak, and some beer and good conversation. He is an interesting guy, that has owned several businesses. It was good to catch up and have some company.

He was a partner in the company I first worked for when I moved to OKC in 1978. He sold his part to the other guy, and not long after caught his first wife screwing around. After the divorce he wanted a room mate at a duplex, and we were roomies for a couple of years. I finally bought a house and used his mom as my real estate agent. He started a yard sprinkler business and did that for years. Finally he got back into the photolab business and was a friendly competitor to the company I worked at. When our company's boss had health issues, he shut down that company, and we all moved to my buddies company. I worked for him for a few years but I could see the photolab business was dying from digital photography.

I left him and got into aerial photography. He struggled on for a while, but analog light sensitive photography was dying and so did Kodak.
