It’s hard to know where to draw the line in all of this financial mess. As citizens we all pay a portion of our income to the government for services and a safety net. We shouldn’t expect the government to bail us out of our bad business decisions but we should hope to be...

Are immune to your consultations
So smile for a while and let’s be jolly
I’ve been running around like a mad dog. Yet, good things look like they’re getting ready to happen. I would love to rant this morning about General Motors, but today it seems like that’s shooting fish in a barrel. So instead, how about some happy things?

And I’ll hang around as long as you will let me
Yesterday I got chosen as wine blogger of the day over on twitter. They described PBE as eclectic. Yeah, it’s that. I guess if I’m a wine blogger I should write something about pinot, or merlot or cabernet sauvignon. But then I get run over by a damned old train. It’s hard to pigeonhole...
