HECKUVA RIDE

It's all ended with me and mine in a better place than we were at the end of '07...which is nice...but as a creature of habit, I'd rather not make a habit of the kind of scrambling we experienced in the fourth quarter.


I remain a mighty lucky man, this much I know.

Thank you all for your continued readership, patronage and pestering. If your 2009 brings you half the good fortune I've had this year, you'll be doing mighty well indeed.

Sláinte and santé, and long may your big jib draw.

THANKS FOR THE HITS - KEEP 'EM COMING!

And that means all thirty of you.

Look for lots more posting here in the days and weeks to come, and maybe there'll be enough material to spin off into a new blog - after all, I can no longer say things aren't interesting, and I can also dash off things that I hadn't in the past for fear of The Man slapping me down. (Moot points for $1000, Alex.)

In the meantime, I do appreciate your warm thoughts and support, whether this is the first you've read of me or whether you heard me stink out the joint on the air back in '89.

So. Who needs a guy whose marketable skills include running off at the mouth? Anybody?
