There is such a thing as bad luck. A neighbor of mine told me a story of when he was a kid. He and his friends were throwing dirt clods at another group of kids. Now, I remember doing exactly that. Dirt clods were perfect for throwing because when they hit the ground, they exploded in a puff of dirt that I pretended was a grenade.
Pretending I was blowing up my friends. Huh, sounds like a Unabomber childhood when I put it that way, doesn’t it?

This clod-sue story reminds me of the words attributed to a renown American Banker, Willie Sutton who made a lot of withdrawals: "Why do you rob banks Willie. Because that's where the money is".
ReplyDeleteCompanies may be embracing the death of wokeness and DEI because:
ReplyDelete1) they can blame it on Trump, MAGA et al
2) they know it cost them a fortune with no upside, so now they can get back to making money.
Got hit in the eye with a dirt clod as a kid. Not sure if GD was that good or lucky.
