I've been pretty heads down with work but I'll have to stop by and see what's going on in the wonderful world of lime.

Kind words indeed. I did write a little over the past few days on the economy, the Sun acquisition of MySQL (which I have been using non-stop recently...ah, MySQL, light of my life, fire of my loins. My sin, my soul. My-see-quil: the tip of the tongue taking a trip of three steps down the palate to tap, at three, on the teeth. My. See. Quil. -- apologies to Nobakov!), etc. and am afraid to go into more details in fear of embarrassing myself. <BR/><BR/>Anyhow, I have also just completed the meme idea that I gave you. Now I challenge you (and anyone else!) to try it out!

Once you post something let me know, I'll give you some "linky love" (as my blog pal <A HREF="http://lachansondephoenix.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow">Sue</A> calls it. Oh...and young women flocking to C-SPAN listeners...er, sure, yeah, happens all the time...<BR/><BR/>Lime I've stalked your blog (seems like "blogstalking" is OK nowadays!) for a while, so it's good to stop by each others' places in the daylight once in a while. Running a marathon...DINGDINGDING, give the lady a ceeegar! Gee howdja guess?<BR/><BR/>I think you're right that the panic of the underinformed (which would be a great book title, BTW) definitely makes things worse. Even those who are over-informed, though--the "talking heads"--still disagree on exactly what's going to happen. So I guess a 'plan for the worst, hope for the best' strategy is a good one...<BR/><BR/>Jimjtj3https://www.blogger.com/profile/17729843259515653074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5797795777181618452.post-47694476580960002272008-01-24T17:28:00.000-06:002008-01-24T17:28:00.000-06:00thanks for stopping by my place and sharing a litt...thanks for stopping by my place and sharing a little on the dreams post and the LOL post. glad you enjoyed them. let me guess, run a marathon, perhaps?<BR/><BR/>i have to admit i am not knowledgeable enough to be able to predict what's going to go on with this threat of recession. i do think there's a similarity to when the weather guys predict horrible storms. the whole world panics and runs around like chickens with no heads, makes stuff worse than it has to be.limehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17259558876349307173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5797795777181618452.post-90536911461511937462008-01-23T16:53:00.000-06:002008-01-23T16:53:00.000-06:00Oh, and the whole XM thing...II am addicted too, b...Oh, and the whole XM thing...II am addicted too, but probably much worse than you. Not to CNBC (which I was listening to earlier today) but to C-SPAN. Am I the only guy that thinks that if you crank your 400 Watt car stereo with C-SPAN, open the windows and cruise down the hot spot in your town on a Friday night, then young woman would FLOCK to you? C-SPAN is that cool!Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04260947037457714246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5797795777181618452.post-31053811881352977682008-01-23T16:49:00.000-06:002008-01-23T16:49:00.000-06:00Hooo, buy, you do NOT want me to get started on my...Hooo, buy, you do NOT want me to get started on my thoughts....I will not be able to stop. I could go on for hours and am talking to many people smarter than me regarding investments and the economy domestically and internationally. So I will keep my mouth shut and say that it could be worse. And it hopefully start getting better soon. I am finishing up a book by Robert Rubin and when I do, I may address this on my blog somewhat.Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04260947037457714246noreply@blogger.com
