<font color=magenta> Kate, you are a treasure!

I loved that post of yours, Kate. "That which does not kill us makes us stronger." How true. So many of my life experiences have been gut checks beyond human imagination. BUT I HAVE LIVED!!! No one will ever accuse me of having lived one of those ordinary lives of "lonely desperation." (Thoreau? Emerson?) NEVER! I will continue to take risks. Just never such incredible high stakes gambles like I placed on Qualcomm. When I made the "pot" in early January (not millions, mind you), I was "lost." Maybe I felt as if I had not deserved it. Self-esteem issues, likely. But I was clearly "lost."

What mystifies me these days was that I did not register the terror I had felt when Q! (that's Mqurice-speak) declined seriously in late January. An out was so magnificently presented in late March. Damn! Back to work I go, I guess. But I like to work. I don't want to be like so many who simply anticipate retiring. I want to be productive. But the crazy obsession I had with Qualcomm has really been a blow to me in that I have lost a golden opportunity at reasonable comfort. What a drag!

Love you girl, John
