The Final Jeopardy Answer: No.

The question: I'm 53, married, and trying this as an experiment ... can I show the discipline to do this at this age?

I started this in April 2003, and while it is not being shut down, it is going into, appropriate for a bear, hibernation. It seems an appropriate day to do it.

I say hibernation because I will make few, if any, direct posts to this journal for the foreseeable future. My Twitter posts will continue to appear daily. And I do plan to keep following my friends list. And commenting. And playing the LJDQ.

I've noticed in the past year that I haven't had much I wanted to say on here. You all know the situation tweeti and I have at home, and it continues. I am just depressing myself anytime I think about it. And there has been a stagnation here; few new people showing up, and I think the rest of you have already heard all my stories.

I would love to take the extra time I have these days to start a book, but I wouldn't have a clue how to write a novel, and I still don't really have the time for the research nonfiction would require. Besides that, there are a lot of things I don't want to write about (crime, courts) that seem to be the most popular, and most of my sports contacts have flown away.

So I will find something else to pass my time, and post now and then on Twitter or Facebook just to let everyone know I'm alive.

Thanks for playing along. I wish I had a copy of our home game to give you.

And if I take a really good photo, I might post it on here anyway.
