Terrorism Game Theory

nytimes.com

"...My mentor in such things is my late departed friend
George Beaver, a crazy Englishman who played golf — as
a man in his 80's — almost every day of the Lebanese
civil war at the Beirut Golf and Country Club. (I confess
that I joined him on some days.) When I would say to him,
"You know, George, it's crazy to play golf under such
conditions," he always had the best answer: "I know I am
crazy to do it, but I would be even crazier if I didn't."

Unable to actually imprison us, these terrorists want us to
imprison ourselves. Sorry, but no way. It breaks my heart
to think about the people who lost loved ones on Sept. 11,
but I will not let it break my spirit.

I went to the ballgame Friday night, took in Dvorak's
"New World" Symphony at the Kennedy Center Saturday,
took my girls out to breakfast in Washington Sunday
morning, and then flew to the University of Michigan.
Heck, I even went out yesterday and bought some stock.
What a great country.

I wonder what Osama bin Laden did in his cave in
Afghanistan yesterday? "

Personally I don't have money left to buy stock. I did go to a concert with Joe Cocker opening for The Guess Who on Saturday at the Patriot Center.

CRUEL
I haven't even had breakfast
because I had so much to do
you are heartless
I am going to go eat a Montmorency Cherry Scone and try to forgive you
