Hello from Houston

The Quiet Coup - The Atlantic (May 2009) : "The Quiet Coup". Excellent article about the current state of American finance. Another good reference is Paul Krugman who advocates nationalizing the banking industry. We have to stop believing that powerful people who have made a lot of money are not the people who should remain in power.

The Beginner’s Guide to Twitter Michael Hyatt I like Michael Hyatt's blog, but Twitter is losing its appeal for me. It is becoming a site for scam artists to troll for leads and I am pretty tired of it.

Thanks for visiting my (now our blog).

Pretty amazing, but not surprising considering the life he has been living. C'mon you have to pay your taxes. The bigger question is the fate of healthcare reform in the US. If you have read his book you have a sense of where he was going and Barney Frank continues to ask if we should be severing the link between healthcare coverage and employment.

What a great game. The offense pulled it out and stepped up big time. Cant wait till next year.

Happy Holidays from the Harringtons!!

We had a nice long weekend! Stephen and Caitlin were both home from college so it was like old times. We bought a new refrigerator WOOWEE!! My good friend Ray came over and we installed the bugger. I joined Twitter because of an article i read in the NYTimes. I really have no idea how these things work but i do apparently like to join them. November was a busy month for us. Glenora and I went to Pittsburgh for a memorial service for Nana Flo. It was nice to see our relatives and bury her ashes at the same cemetary where her mother, father, and other relatives are buried. We only stayed for a long weekend so we didnt get to do much in the Burgh. Stephen was notified that he had been accepted for Navy flight school when he graduates from UT in May. Very exciting for him. Congratulations to him!!
