    I think the most defining quote of Ron is when Chris says "why don't you come down to the store and talk to the salesman!" and Ron responds "Better idea: I go nowhere, and talk to no one".

      Yes, but even when you know someone’s leaving, there’s a feeling of habit there. I went to my 51st high school reunion that was combined with the class after us for their 50th. It was astonishing how familiar the group looked because I went to a small school. There were still people I didn’t get to talk to, and I found myself thinking, oh, I’ll see them tomorrow or on Monday. Even though I hadn’t been in high school with them for 50 years! and at our age, we’ll probably never see each other again. That was some of them live in the same town and do actually socialize.
