How I did it
It made me
Feel accomplished. 
How I did it: The hard way. Working full time during the day. Going to school full time during the night. With a year off in the middle due to life's interventions. Read how I did it…
It made me
Way happy!
How I did it: Accepted the invite on 43things.com. Immediately went to kiva.org, searched for the 43things group and joined it at the kiva site as well. I have Kiva credit inb stock so I will add another loan to celebrate the ones in my portfolio now... Read how I did it…
It made me
Indifferent 
How I did it: Got an invitation to my first one.Invited myself to the next ones...The trick is to be a subject matter expert in something. Whether it is as an end user, a member of the public, a mathematician, or the best file clerk in the industry. Any expertise you have that the others do not, is valuable, and a reason for you to be at a meeting. Read how I did it…

The Price of Peace...
1 month ago
The good thing about a divorce is that, akin to hitting yourself with a hammer, it feels so good to be through.
The bad thing is, all it takes to bring everything back in a death spiral of horror is a court filing.
Even a Final Ruling is not always truly final.
The things you thought were over and done can be brought back, Lazarus like, with a mere slip of paper headed by Motion to…
You’d think it was a dance.
Motion to the left.
Motion to the right.
But these are Motions to compel.
Motions to Appeal.
All candy coated words that mask the true intent.
Judge… Please force the other to do what I want and not what they did or what you told them to do…
And the return salvos…
Judge… Please make them cease and punish them for asking for my head
And the counter salvos…
Judge Please ignore the other sides views and punish them for asking that I be punished for asking what I requested you reconsider…
It gets to the point that you lose track of what everyone said if enough time passes.
No matter.
Hundreds of pages of transcript can be yours for a price.
What price peace?
Peace is Priceless.
This town has a lot of horses...

And this one is very appropriate for Memorial Day.
A horse in green.
Outside a similarly colored restaurant.
