“The fact that I’m worrying about the cost of a digital voice recorder when people are living in squalor in much of the world troubles me. I just don’t know what to do about it.”

Oh, brother, first rejoice that you are actually troubled by it!

And hey, every little bit helps – at least when we’re as rich as we are and others are as poor as they are. So first cut all the spending and consumption that you can, and then pinch pennies on the things you do need to buy. So if the voice recorder is in the latter category for you, then worrying about its cost might be the exactly right thing to do.

Because that’s when harvest comes in! Except most of us don’t farm or even garden anymore.

Doug,

A Fall Feast? Why not a Summer Feast? Or a Spring Feast? What makes fall superior?

You can never argue logically on this kind of PC junk.

Skipping Thanksgiving… Not only do we not say “Christmas” at my work, but today management is bringing in turkey and stuffing for a “Fall Feast.” Apparently the term “Thanksgiving” is too divisive…
