(Just saw the highway sign–I think it’s the 16th but that is a Monday. Somebody correct me, please.)

Have you read Erich von Neff’s bicycling stories from the 1950s?

How about a Press Release channel?

Like to hear press conferences on any subject? How about a Press Release channel? We could have non-profit, hi-tech  &  government press conferences all day long. This might provide new jobs or recycle people with the appropriate skills.

All Mixed Up: I watched Bernie Madoff whistleblower Harry Markopolos testify

before the House Financial Services today. Markopolos was confident and well spoken. Under questioning, he explained more than once what was needed to change operations at the Security Exchange Commission. He was very upbeat as he explained the new type of person needed to supervise financial activities at the SEC. 

They should be gray- haired, even bald, Markopolos said, and from the industrial sector where they made enough money to not want more. 

Doesn’t that sound like a partial description of Bernie Madoff?
