  That Elephant In The Room     That Elephant In The Room   You might be able to see it.  Yes, over there.  Grey, Gray or even possibly pink.  And then again, it might not be quite so clear.  Not tangible.  Not quite.   Large and not so large too.  Real or imaginary.  The likelihood of many scenarios are abundant when the subject is brought to attention.  It's the ideal pondering moment. Or two.   Things, like this and like life, are not that simple.  Far from it. Events, recent and not-so-recent, tell us such things are far from simple.   When there's an elephant in the room, introduce him                                                                                                        Randy Pausch   How do you approach the elephant in the room?   With discussion.  Action.  Asking...

  Man Of A Certain Age      Man Of A Certain Age I was listening to an episode of All Things Considered on National Public Radio with a segment where host Terry Gross was interviewing Ray Romano, the stand-up comedian most familiar to people for his real-life based television sitcom "Everybody Loves Raymond".  Mr. Romano who later went on to other things also spoke of his later show "Men Of A Certain Age".   Not as financially successful as his previous effort, it was still awarded certain accolades.  His thoughts brought me to ponder.   As if I needed much prodding.  Pondering Prodding.    Anyway I was pondering about men of a certain age after all I am one. I guess I attained that status at some point in my past. I imagine.   My mind continues to jump as it is known to do.  After a wh...

   Six Of One    Six of One And A Half Dozen Of The Other.  We have choices everyday.  They are not necessarily of a Sophie's Choice consequence but there is a choice to be made.  Not a Lady or the Tiger Behind The Door either.  You understand the impact.   But there are choices we make.  With little or a lot of information in which we decide.  A snap decision.  Maybe a situation where more time, more thought is part of the scenario.   Go left.  Turn Right.  Follow the leader.  Take the uncharted route. But some, maybe most, choices are quite simple.  Maybe those we face each and every day. The remarkable thing is, we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day.                                                                                               C...

How many contractors should I get to bid my project?So you send out your project bid request to two contractors and find that one of them is very low on half the items and the other is very low on the other half of the items... The temptation is there to have each of them do what they were low bidder on.That isn't the way it works, sorry, no cigar. Each bidder is looking at an "all or nothing" bid. So go right to the bottom line and see who is the low bidder. No contractor will work on the same job with another contractor at the same time. It is a liability issue. If one of them isn't insured and his employee gets hurt on the job, the other insured contractor will be hit for his worker's compensation insurance. This might get the borrower involved in a law suit. These renovation project...
