Hi Mq! I hope you're enjoying your walkabout and putting it to profitable use (it turns out spending inordinate amounts of time on SI does not do much to enhance one's net worth, as is being proven this week).

I've been surfing NZNet for info on the Americas Cup races. It seems us yanks owe a vote of thanks to the intrusive flotilla of Kiwi spectators who managed to delay Prada in their race against AmericaOne. I was surprised to find Auckland has the highest number of boats per capita in the world. Do you own a few of those? If so, I hope they're not on margin, or you may get a call that might cause you to miss the big race.

One suggestion for self improvement during your time off: have you considered a course in english spelling? That's American english, of course, since it has become the core language of IT.

Malicious though it might sound, I'm hoping that certain people are NOT wearing bungees.

...but Mr. Dinkey, I was only kidding.

...really, I was just kidding.

...Mr. Dinkey?
