Overload

I haven't added to this blog in over two months. It is due to overload.

Overload isn't necessarily a bad thing. I have had many joyful overloads in the past 75 days. My First-Born Son came home and we celebrated his 25th birthday. My partners and I closed a deal we have been working on for almost a year and we harvested a nice success fee.

The bad side of overload - Israel is at war. Hezbollah is hiding successfully. Civilians in Lebanon and Northern Israel are dying. Iraq is a screaming catastrophe. The Bush Administration is saying "Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain." Interest rates are up, and so are gas prices. And gas prices are going to go a lot higher. Remenber - gas prices quadrupaled in a very short period during he 1973 oil embargo. OPEC can do it again.

It's a Mystery. Why do we do the things we do?
