This "casual" is inspired by a true life email that I
accidentally received from a big bucks Wall Street
portfolio manager. In my answer I offered investment
advice based on a unified theory of the universe that
was told to me by a fellow named Krumline way back in
college when I was flunking economics. Krumline
theorized that just hanging around provides a core
source of knowledge that is applicable to almost any
subject and at the very least allows one to hold an
opinion as dearly as the so-called “experts.”
The autobiography of my grandfather kicked off 2002
with its prologue about his removing a perfectly normal
appendix from an otherwise healthy and conscious
patient, then deciding to bite the bullet and charge
him anyway. How he came to earn that $75 in California
took him from a farm in Utah Territory to basketball
stardom in Chicago, with stints as a doughboy in
France, and as a school teacher and engineer on the
Idaho frontier. His poignant, funny and outrageous
takes on his life and times offered serialization that
continued until February of 2003.
This article shows how the amazing "Weather Changing

who wish they were dead.
