Connection cold turkey
Filed Under Travel, People | 2 Comments
In the last couple of days I found myself without a connection, both online and mobile. This was very disconcerting and I must admit to severe withdrawal symptoms. I do not feel bad about this addiction though, as it is the way I live and work and frankly, connection should be everywhere.
On the bright side, I had a marvellous time celebrating Thanksgiving with some great people, in a great place, with great food and drink. The pictures speak for themselves…

The best quote ever
Filed Under Quotes | 5 Comments
…the "rear of the human body" and "between two imaginary lines, one on each side of the body (the ‘outside lines’), which outside lines are perpendicular to the ground and to the horizontal lines described above and which perpendicular outside lines pass through the outermost point(s) at which each nate meets the outer side of each leg."
- this pinnacle of verbosity was found in county ordinance from Pennsylvania requiring strippers to keep one-third of their buttocks covered while dancing, struggling for more than 300 words to pinpoint the behind of the dancer.

Thanks to some good people, tonight I was at a big gala dinner for businesses congratulating themselves on their achievements. It was actually much more fun than I expected, I managed to have a conversation about theology and much non-biz stuff. Yes, even gala dinners are conversations…
