The January of my dreams continues. We have had one minor snowfall and no below zero weather. Although this might be the occasion to wax elouquent on global warming, I prefer to think of it as just a simple pleasure gifted by the spin of the wheel of weather fortune. I still suspect we will pay big time before the appearance of the daffodils.
What I did notice today was a fascinating chart and an accompanying article on the nature of the 1% in our country. It comes from the New York Times and is revealing and probably about as even handed as any article on this hyperpolarizing topic can be. Check it out. I have discovered that I was not in, am not in now, and will not OCCUPY THE 1% NITCHE IN THE FUTURE.
Thomasina in Tom Stoppard's mind bending time warping play, ARCADIA, observes that when you stir raspberry jam into vanilla pudding it will first swirl in streaks but ultimately will turn the entire pudding pink. If you stir the pudding in the opposite direction, the jam will not separate back out again. --LIFE MOVES ONLY FORWARD--NEVER BACK!--
