Episode 2 of a walk through the night... Jeff knew how to love a lady. Yes! And he does it effortlessly. It’s more like he was born with it. Every woman needs a man that can make her laugh, every woman also needs a man that can tease them and flatter them even when they both know it’s not the truth. Take for instance an occasion, Jeff and Joan woke up one Saturday morning and Jeff was just staring at Joan; a suspicious kind of stare. Joan of course knew that Jeff was thinking about something and that he wants to say and at same time he wouldn’t until he is asked. So she looked at him for few seconds and said “ok! What’s it?

Careers lasted lifetimes. Now, by my estimates, the half-life of a career is about 10 years. I expect that it will decrease, within a decade, to five years. Advancing technologies will cause so much disruption to almost every industry that entire professions will disappear. And then, in about 15–20 years from now, we will be facing a jobless future, in which most jobs are done by machines and the cost of basic necessities such as food, energy, and health care is negligible—just as the costs of cellphone communications and information are today. We will be enteri...
