Genius or Luck?

In early September, your Mom and I picked today (Oct.4) to travel over to Madison to watch Grandson Mitchell play football.  We changed the plan.  We went to Madison last weekend.  The weather was gorgeous and I was feeling pretty good.  Today (the original travel date) has turned into heavy rain and a forecast of  potential lightning.  Now I ask you, was the change in plans “genius” or just plain luck?  Me thinks it was just luck.

I have been walking the Mall recently.  I am up to one hour walk time.  That is pretty close to my walk time before the heart operation.

For those of you that have 401(k)s, Warren Buffet, the investment guru, has some sage advice.  “Place your hard earned retirement dollars in the stock of businesses that are so wonderful that an idiot can run them.  Because sooner or later, one will.”  The bottom line is that you place your money in good businesses with a strong futures.  Dah!   Genius?  I don’t think so.  Common sense rules.

Grasshopper No.2 has elected to use the UW Badger tickets next week.  Her observation is that next year Grandson Grant will be off to college and she probably won’t be able to do this again.  Enjoy the moment!

Grandson Collin became engaged last week.  Congratulations.

Great Granddaughter Myla was baptized in Cleveland, Ohio last Saturday.  She was offically welcomed to the Romanian Orthydox religion.

Enjoy the weekend.

Love,

Dad
