hello pezz, late afternoon report:
(i) i worked from home today, and went to location to meet with some designers for and on behalf of my precious property club to initiate the design and renovation of the small (520 sft) ocean view hideaway situated within the labyrinth of an ancient (enough) market place nearby. we ruminated over some ideas were i to live in what is now a hovel, intending to make the place suitable for a transient yuppy or visiting model or touring scholar, or just some cheating spouse requiring a quiet place
ideas: rugged spanish tile floor, demure hardwood and built-in furniture (day bed doubling as night bed), all geewhizbang electronics, floor to ceiling window, italian lighting, rooftop shower, etc etc and whatever other ideas that efficiently make use of what would be a standard size walk-in closet and bathroom or a two car garage in north america.
(ii) after a good late-afternoon nap, before dinner, i bought more paper certificate gold, inspired by the news flow, and questioning my outsized devotion to the usd and hkd.
(iii) i am fearful that even i may well have underestimated the full extent of the cataclysm that awaits us - yes, that is a real possibility.
the idea that the government of the leading mature economy would print money and stuff same in envelops so that its population will leak same to puff the coffer of the government of the leading emerging economy with enormous needs is simply ufb.
