ADP
1YR 12%
5YR 46%
10YR 245%
PAYX 1
1YR 11%
5YR 44%
10YR 203%
I can't imagine a better one two punch of holding both going forward, Though I intend to stay with PAYX they are a very old holding for me and one I"m comfortable with that idea is something I would like to make happen in 2024.
As more AI uses appear I strongly believe both of them will be leaders in adopting it in their business.

Wumpus hunt was a puzzle in a highly connected network. Had to be careful of shooting arrows on a guess, or the Wumpus might move...
Colossal Cavern Adventure was a fantasy game, similar to MUDs (or at least TinyMUD). Some puzzle elements as well, but also a lot of CS lore incorporated. Some of the lore predated Adventure, though I suspect some was original with the game and entered the culture thereby.
If you ever see somebody using the test string (hopefully not password!) XYZZY... |

I can tell you that job got a whole lot harder after 9/11 happened, much stronger rules were put into action about that type of medical drugs/material.
My old employer had automatic radioactive scanners set up at key entrances used by environmental services employees and others who came into contact with things like "red bag" material to stop it being handled wrong. They would trigger an alarm and lock doors tight until it could be looked into. Handling it wrong also meant a huge fine if it made it out of the hospital in any way. Most landfills utilize the same technology now days.

Of course they also had the very first HUGS baby tags system too, they not only locked maternity floors down tight they also locked the elevators. |

Not that I mind that if I own it already :)

Where we pick blueberries is looking fantastic this year so far, around 5 acres of tall bush ones at our friend Jim's patch. |

| From: InDivGrowthWeTrust | 6/17/2024 7:31:48 PM | | | | | | re: NEE plan to sell $2 Billion in equity units
NEE posted a pair of News items today. The 1st are plans to sell $2 Billion in equity units
Details can be read here.... NextEra Energy to sell equity units
How much $2 Billion dilutes the share price of a $150 Billion Market Cap, I guess we'll see,
but on the surface the math (2/150) works out to 1.3%, based on Monday's closing price.
2nd News item of the day for NEE is Entergy and NextEra Energy Resources announce
agreement to develop up to 4.5 GW of new solar and energy storage projects
Are the two news items related?
NEE is a Core Holding in my Retirement Portfolio |

I'll be heading up that way again in a couple weeks, should make it a two day trip and pick a few myself. :) We do have blueberries here, but nothing like the Finger Lakes. |
