How Many Years?

Oh well.  Too many.  As I sit outside here thinking of what has gone on, it occures to me alot.  I've had heart surgery, bought three and sold two sailboats, and done quite a bit.

Now living in out office part time and on our sailboat part time, we are getting ready to sail into the south Pacific.  Should make for an interesting new chapter in our lives.

Youth Clubs?

And now I have a raging battle to try and find a youth/teen club for my daughter. What a hassle! Trying to find one in Orange County where she could have fun is turning into a nightmare!

End Times

There was a guy on Art Bell the other night, that predicted something like this for the Bush administration. http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20051029/pl_nm/bush_leak_dc

Funny some of the things that Art has on his show.

Work, work...

Work, work...

Life
is, well, strange. After getting married, moving to California from
Texas, going through all the Hell involved in a move like that,
changing careers, my Mother passing away, and countless other smaller
things, I'm hoping that life will settle down just a bit.

Working in a law office is quite a bit different than doing
engineering. Engineering is based on an exact science, and is
therefore governed by unchanging sets of rules - predictable patterns.
Although Law is based on as logical and objective a thought process as
humanly possible, the things in life that make laws necessary are not.
Human emotion, which is what always gets us into trouble, is
tumultuous. Actually, it's not the emotions that are the problem, but
how we allow ourselves to act and react when we're under the influence
of emotions. It seems that over the past few months, I've seen more
stupid behaviors, more irrational decisions, than I have seen in many
years.

It is interesting, however, how even the most rational people become
when they are under the stress of a divorce or facing jail time.

Life is indeed, well, strange.

Long and Arduous Road

And my journey begins...

A move to California. Made in haste? Perhaps, but planned well in advance. Maybe a middle-age crisis in the making. After two sports cars and having had enough of the career I was in, I mustered up my savings and moved. Not after marrying a worman I met over the Internet though.

Seems kinda strange now that I look back on it though. I had a house, my two kids living with me (son and daughter), two cars, a successful career. I was doing fairly well! Now things are quite different...

The Debate

So what did you folks think about the Bush/Kerry debate?
