Probably a wise choice. One of the friends is now a reporter at Global in Calgary and seems to be doing ok but she struggled for years after leaving that small town. Not much or a "profession" now in my mind anyways. I was a techy so the news had no real impact on me either. More beer and dogs for this guy!
