And I'll tell you something: I actually like solving these problemsDefusing 341 little crisesI make folks a hell of a lot happier here on Duma Key than I ever did in court But you haven't lost the knack for leading people away from the things you don't want to discuss, I thought"Wireman, it would only take half an hour to get a physician to look into your eyes and tap your skull-" "You're wrong, muchacho," he said patiently"At this time of year it takes a minimum of two hours to get looked at in a roadside Doc-in-the-Box for a lousy strep throatWhen you add on an hour of travel time - more now, because it's Snowbird Season and none of them know where they're going - you're talking about three daylight hours I just can't give upNot with appointments to see the air conditioning guy at 17the meter-reader at 27the cable guy right here, if he ever shows up He pointed to the next house down the road, which happened to be 39"Youngsters from Toledo are taking that one until March fifteenth, and they're paying an extra seven hundred bucks for something called Wi-Fi, which I don't even know what it is 342 "Wave of the future, that's what it isWave of the fatherraping, mother-stabbing future "Movie was 1969, I think," I said "Whenever it was, viva the wave of the motherraping, froggy-stabbing futureDoesn't change the fact that I'm busier than a one-legged man in an ass-kicking contestYou know it's going to be more than a quick tap and peek with the old doctor-flashlightThat's just where it starts "But if you need it-" "For the time being I'm good to goThat's why I'm the one reading her poems every afterno | | Sunday, January 2nd, 2011 | | 10:11 am |

Focusing on this angle–viewing my choice @@@@@ Focusing on this angle–viewing my choice not as a sacrifice but rather as arming the humans in exchange for the Seeker's life–I knew that it was wrongAnd if I was trying to save only the Seeker, this would be the moment when I would change my mind and turn aroundShe wasn't worth selling out the othersEven she would agree with that Or would she? I suddenly wonderedThe Seeker didn't seem to be as… what was the word Jared had used?AltruisticAs altruistic as the rest of usMaybe she would count her own life dearer than the lives of many But it was too late to change my mindI'd already thought far beyond just saving the Seeker For one thing, this would happen againThe humans would kill any souls they came across unless I gave them another optionMore than that, I was going to save Melanie, and that was worth the sacrificeI was going to save Jared and Jamie, tooMight as well save the repugnant Seeker while I was at it The souls were wrong to be hereMy humans deserved their worldI could not give it back to them, but I could give them thisIf only I could be sure that they would not be cruel I would just have to trust Doc, and hope And maybe wring the promise from a few more of my friends, just in case I wondered how many human lives I would saveHow many souls' lives Imight saveThe only one I couldn't save now was myselfEven over the sound of our exerted breathing, Jared heard | | Saturday, January 1st, 2011 | | 10:19 am |

Red saw Minetta at midday chow when the platoon came in from working on the roadAfter he filed through the chow line, he sat down beside Minetta, and laid his mess gear on the groundWith a grunt he eased his back against a tree"Just got back, huh?" he nodded to Minetta "Yeah, this morning "They kept you pretty long for just a scratch," Red said Minetta was silent for a moment and then added, "Well, you know how it is, hard to get in, hard to get out He swallowed a mouthful of Vienna sausage"I had a pretty soft time there Red piddled the dehydrated mashed potatoes and canned string beans with his spoonIt was the only eating utensil he owned; months ago he had thrown away his knife and fork"They treated you pretty good, huh?"

Thank goodness, the banked fire in the @@@@@ Thank goodness, the banked fire in the great fireplace gave out some heat still, and enough light for her to see the door to the dining room and the kitchen beyondShe didn't care what she might find; even cold rice and stew would be all rightWith one hand holding the dark coverlet around her, she groped for the doorknob Was it to the left or the right? She hadn't noticed"Stop right there, or I'll blow a hole through your middle!" Rhett's harsh voice made her jumpThe blanket fell away and cold air assaulted her "Great balls of fire!"

Aren't you going to open the door for me?" Rhett threw some logs into the fireplaceThe hot coals touched off a flare of dried leaves on one branch of woodHe quickly sobered the expression on his face before Scarlett could see itHe opened the door to the dining room and stepped backScarlett swept past him, but had to stop almost at once The room was completely dark"If you'll allow me-" Rhett struck a matchHe touched it to the lamp above the table, then carefully adjusted the flameScarlett could hear the laughter in his voice but somehow it didn't make her angry"I'm so hungry I could eat a horse," she admitte | | Thursday, December 30th, 2010 | | 10:11 am |

Bourne nodded, the signal for them to @@@@@Again Bourne nodded, the signal for them to crash inside, but before they could move, both were partially blown back by an explosion from within; a grenade had been set off, with fragments of metal and glass embedded in the doorsThe smoke billowed, wafting out into the dining room; the smell was acrid, sickening Jason and Sergei once more approached the kitchen’s entrance, and once again they were stopped by a second sudden explosion followed by staccato gunfire, the bullets piercing the thin, louvered panels of the swinging doors It was too much for the furious, impassioned ChameleonHe cracked the bolt of his AK-47, pulled the selective lever and then the trigger for auto fire, and crashed the doors open, lunging for the floor Another scene from another hellA section of the outside wall had been blown away, the obese owner and his chef, still wearing his toque, were dead, corpses pinned against the lower shelves of the kitchen, blood streaming across and down the wood Bourne slowly rose to his feet, his legs in agony, every nerve in his body frayed, the edge of hysteria not far awayAs if in a trance, he looked around through the smoke and the debris, his eyes finally settling on a large, ominous fragment of brown butcher’s paper nailed to the wall with a heavy cleaverHe approached it and, yanking out the cleaver, read the words printed in a black butcher’s pencil: The trees of Tannenbaum will burn and children will be the kindlingSleep well, Jason Bourne The mirrors of his life were shattered into a thousand pieces of glassThere was nothing else to do but scream Robert Ludlum ?? THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM 322 31 “Stop it, David!” “My God, he’s insane, AlekseiSergei, grab him, hold himYou, help Sergei! Put him on the ground so I can talk to himWe must leave here quickly!” It was all the two Russian aides could do to wrestle the screaming Bourne to the grassHe had raced out through the exploded hole in the wall, running into the high grass in a futile attempt to find the Jackal, firing his AK-47 into the field beyond until his magazine was emptySergei and the surviving backup had rushed in after him, the former ripping the weapon out of Jason’s hands, together leading the hysterical man back to the rear of the mutilated country inn, where Alex and Krupkin were waiting for themForcibly, their charge in a sweating, erratically breathing trance, the five men walked rapidly to the front of the restaurant; there the uncontrollable hysteria again seized the Chameleon The Jackal’s van was goneCarlos had reversed his line of flight and escaped and Jason Bourne had gone mad “Hold him!” roared Krupkin, kneeling beside Jason as the two aides pinned Bourne to the groundThe KGB officer reached down and spread his hand across the American’s face, gouging his cheeks with thumb and forefinger, forcing Treadstone Seventy-one to look at him“I’ll say this once, | | Wednesday, December 29th, 2010 | | 10:11 am |

The net result: I still have the old way I @@@@@ The net result: I still have the old way I used to think, and I have Peter's way of looking at the same problem or situationI have two thoughts instead of one One more way to analyze a problem or trend, and that is pricelessToday, I often say, "How would Peter Lynch do this, or Donald Trump or Warren Buffett or George Soros?" The only way I can access their vast mental power is to be humble enough to read or listen to what they have to sayArrogant or critical people are often people with low self-esteem who are afraid of taking risksYou see, if you learn something new, you are then required to make mistakes in order to fully understand what you have learned If you have read this far, arrogance is not one of your problemsArrogant people rarely read or buy tapesWhy should they? They are the center of the universe There are so many "intelligent" people who argue or defend when a new idea clashes with the way they thinkIn this case, their so-called "intelligence" combined with "arrogance" equals "ignorance"Each of us knows people who are highly educated, or believe they are smart, but their balance sheet paints a different pictureA truly intelligent person welcomes new ideas, for new ideas can add to the synergy of other accumulated ideasListening is more important than talkingIf that was not true, God would not have given us two ears and only one mouthToo many people think with their mouth instead of listening to absorb new ideas and possibilitiesThey argue instead of asking questions I take a long view on my wealthI do not subscribe to the "Get rich quick" mentality most lottery players or casino gamblers haveI may go in and out of stocks, but I am long on educationIf you want to fly an airplane, I advise taking lessons firstI am always shocked at people who buy stocks or real estate, but never invest in their greatest asset, their mindJust because you bought a house or two does not make you an expert at real estateCHOOSE FRIENDS CAREFULLY: The power of associationFirst of all, I do not choose my friends by their financial stateme | | Sunday, December 19th, 2010 | | 10:18 am |

I mean, now? On purpose?" I shook my head, but that wasn't good enough for herI could tell by the way she just stood there, looking me in the eyeI'd-" "You'd what, Daddy?" "I was going to say I'd cut my own arm off first, but all at once that seemed like a really bad idea I'd never do it, Illy "Then why is she still afraid of you?" "I think She hurled herself into my arms so hard she almost knocked us both onto the sofa"Oh, Daddy, I'm so so | | Saturday, December 4th, 2010 | | 10:11 am |
