Some Things I'm Really Thankful For.....In No Particular Order

THAT...

....I'm not Kate Middleton, adored by all the world, and totally over-exposed in every way to the point of now being massively, unendingly boring.

....I wasn't even tempted to buy over-priced, over-hyped Facebook stock at the IPO and have never gotten on the Facebook fleshpile. I have enough addictions---fly fishing, hiking, painting, investments and keeping in real touch with real people I care about----to be addicted to a dying, over-the-hill, privacy-invading social network. FB is over-exposed in every way. Investors who've lost millions/billions on the FB frenzy are going to scream bloody murder ad naseum.  Let the lawsuits begin to no one's surprise.

....I'm not Al Gore's 'serious' girlfriend.... or even his unserious dinner partner at a casual dinner party. Al. Their days are so numbered, as the sun sets on too big to fail. The sun may take a while to set, but set it is over the dying age of Wall Street ruling the world. You can bank on it.

.....I'm not in any way associated with Jamie Dimon and the charming banditos of Wall Street.  Their days are so numbered, as is the too big to fail policies that taxpayers are being used to prop them up. 

....Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt will never marry because for the foreseeable future there are states like North Carolina which will never legalize gay marriage. They live in a world of narcissistic fantasy of their omnipotent influence.

.....That I'm going to be fly fishing/hiking with friends on the South Holston this weekend, not 10 miles from the NASCAR Bristol Speedway, yet light-years away in the most beautiful setting on Earth, besides the Tetons. Blogging will be light.

Will be back with more....but I'm gettng ready to leave on a fishing trip for the long weekend and have lots to do as well as watching the finals of DWT with Martha!
