That famous book on my 2003 ordeal is "Geezer Guts," which you can read for free here.   However, compared to 2020, now I get it: 2003 was a very good year. But, unlike 2003, I will probably not be the better for it. "Geezer Guts" had more than a million downloads. Around the world other down-and-outs contacted me, saying they too considered merchandising the sale of a kidney.

2003 had been a difficult year. Both for me personally and my communications boutique. The health insurance I could still afford covered psychotherapy, with a $40 co-pay.

One question I am struggling with is whether to load the 2007 or the 2003 version as my primary Office version. I am currently running Office 2003 as my primary version. Because my surveys show that most corporate clients are running Office 2003 and a number are running even earlier versions, like 2000. But an even bigger cost is the cost of retraining because the user interface is so different between Office 2003 and 2007.
