Thread hijack.
Many moons ago, my dad was approached by our next door neighbor to see if he was interested in investing in an idea they had for a chain of daycare centers. He scoffed at it. Too risky. They went ahead without him and started a company called Kinder Care. While it eventually folded some 25 years later, at one time it was quite the big deal.
His therapist says that with another couple of years of intense counseling, that nasty tic should go away.
