S’hard t’believe but it’s too durn hot t’sleep.....first nite in a long time that’s been the case.....we opened a window ‘n turned on the a/c fan ‘n I expect it’ll cool off eventually ‘n I’ll be able t’sleep.....in the meantime I’ll just sit here ‘n do this.....I can’t play any more Solitare for a while.....I’ve been reduced to playing games that I don’t know anything about ‘n couldn’t possibly beat ‘n it gets really boring losing one game after another.......
‘course, if you find one that y’can beat, it gets even more boring to win all the time......
speaking of games.....the trick of beating someone at their own g ame is.....First: Know when you’re being gamed....Second: Change the game......
I wonder why it’s so obvious when you see someone you know being gamed by an unscrupulous cheating SOB but you almost never realize when it’s happening to you.....
I guess that’s what makes Ponzi schemes successful over ‘n over.....also prob’ly accounts for the continued existence of Amway.....we’ll probably see a lot more of Amway ‘n the spin-offs in the days ‘n weeks ‘n months ahead.....get rich quick schemes do well during hard times and America is a land of entrepreneurial dreams and dreams are notoriously hard to kill.....Heck! Even the most cynical among us buys a lottery ticket once in a while.......
