Love over Gold

When the release of a new album by Mark Knopfler makes you travel back in time on Telegraph Road.

Epic.
Too long for the TikTok generation, I'm afraid.
Just fine with me.

Epic guitar solo. Timeless.

On the occasion of my last day in action in an OpenText office let me commemorate a most special moment in my career. Peter & Peter at  OpenText Enterprise World 2019  in Toronto. The lyrics of the song  " Fourteen Black Paintings " by  Peter Gabriel  have a deep meaning for me: They connect my iXOS tenure (1996 - 2001) with my OpenText tenure (2003 - 2024), and they express my hope for a changed world where we all can live together in peace. To my congenial co-creators at OpenText:           Thank you for the company ! ________________________________ P.S. Peter (PeLi) has been updated to version 6.1:

Diese Beobachtung könnte auch im Politikteil erschienen sein.

Nothin' lasts forever And we both know hearts can change And it's hard to hold a candle In the cold November rain We've been through this such a long long time Just tryin' to kill the pain, ooh yeah Love is always coming, love is always going No one's really sure who's lettin' go today Walking away If we could take the time to lay it on the line I could rest my head just knowin' that you were mine All mine So if you want to love me then darlin' don't refrain Or I'll just end up walkin' in the cold November rain Do you need some time on your own? Do you need some time all alone? Ooh, everybody needs some time on their own Ooh, don't you know you need some time all alone I know it's hard to keep an open heart When even friends seem out to ha...
