Dear Faithful Readers (and promiscuous readers as well),
I have been very gratified that this audience for this blog has been growing and from the tone of the comments, includes some thoughtful and interested readers.
Now I am going to screw things up a bit, and I apologize in advance. From now until the evening of August 7, I’m going to be posting at a lower volume (my goal is at least 2 a day).
I am going on a family holiday, namely, on a cruise per the wishes of my recently widowed mother. As much as I like my relatives in small doses, I am likely to need a lobotomy or some very strong brain altering chemicals to get through this with my sanity intact. And while many of you would probably love to be on a cruise and think I am petty to be kvetching, it’s just not my idea of how to travel. But as cruises go, it’s a nice one, and so will likely exceed my expectations.
The ship has satellite, so technology willing, I should be able to stay somewhat in touch.
You can help by e-mailing me or commenting with links to items you think noteworthy that I might miss. And do chat among yourselves via the comments!
Thanks for your patience and interest.
Yves
Enjoy your holiday. Condolences to your Mom.
When you get back you better make up for the reduced productivity young man!
As David said, condolences to your Mom.
You’ve got my sympathy on this one. Being trapped on a cruise ship with family would not be my idea of a “fun” vacation.
Good luck on maintaining your sanity.
Hope your satellite cable works. Would hate to miss your daily writings. Furthermore, we need something to counter the daily rantings of Larry ‘I-lost-my-straitjacket’ Kudlow.

I am sorry to here about your lose. Since you are going into the cruise with low expectations, maybe you will be pleasantly surprise.
Oh, it’s nice to be missed! And thanks for your condolences to my mother and me. I passed your comments to her and she appreciated your interest and sympathy.
