  Where Did That Come From?
I have to admit to being spoiled. Yes, thanks to the hard work of the Editor, I did not really have to worry about generating enough words to fill the blog on a daily basis.

Well, he has used up most of the backlog of letters, and now is waiting for me to send him more of my witty, charming prose to post. I admit to not functioning well under pressure, and I apologize to one and all if there has not been something new on the blog each day.

Hopefully my currently up mood and desire to maintain the momentum we have generated will alleviate the problem.

I just found a postcard in a book I was reading advertising a sale at the Runner's Roost in Darien, CT. The sale was being held from 12/2 - 12/11/1994. Ten years ago. I wonder if the store is even still in business?

I know it is getting a little thin. Hey, it is 8:00 PM and I have been typing without a break since I started at 5:45 PM. Not even a potty break. I have not lifted my hindquarters off the chair. Not bad for someone that thinks he has ADD!

While reading James Patterson's book Cat & Mouse: the doctor in the story was also a rancher to make ends meet. His family tradition was that doctors should not get rich on other peoples misery. What a concept! It sounds like this would be a giant leap towards solving our health care problems.

Also quoted was Einstein's theory of insanity, or should we just label it a definition? Keep doing the same thing and expect a different result.

It reminds me of a Dilbert cartoon which talks about attempting to duplicate a marketing approach that would work like the prison system. Look at their repeat customer rate. Yeah, the inmates say, this time they are not going to catch me, right?
