Hehehe!

And you were the guy talking about assumptions! I'm very aware that this personalizing of our careers has added to your sense of inadequacy. If it helps at all, I'll agree that luck does play a role.

With the caveat that some 'luck' is man-made. As the old saying goes...the Lord helps those who help themselves.

It also helps to be lucky AND good.

Sorry you didn't make that cut.
