Sorry for dropping out of sight like that; got another invite to go up to the mountains and ski with Tenacious G and Middle Guy, and took it…of course I got sick with la grippe Friday, and spent most of the weekend wrapped in a quilt on the sofa of my friend’s condo.
I did get a half-day of skiing in, and managed a Warren Miller-worthy crash on Dave’s Run. You know you’ve crashed well when, after you (finally) get to a stop, you hear a soft voice from above you going “Duuuude! You OK?”
So I had no Internet connection, but managed to read a couple of books (the new William Gibson, Pattern Recognition, and Jay Walters’ and Dan Walter’s great The Third House: Lobbyists, Power, and Money in Sacramento).
I’m back, will work on the ‘Risk’ stuff and catch up to all the world’s events, plus all the comments.
With all that, a nice weekend…

Did I not tell you that “Third House” was an awesome book? I found it, how shall I say it, “enlightening.”
Yes, and I need to give you the props for turning me on to it…
…and the fact that I’ve owned it for two months and just now got to read it should let you know what my life is like…
A.L.
And how about Pattern Recognition? I’ve been cheaping out and not adding it to my pile of 30 books to be read.
