Blame Game

Its funny. Everywhere you look someone is blaming the other one. Facebook caused its own fiasco to add to the fun since stateside we were getting bored with the republican - democrat match - it was getting to be a five setter with Nadal and Federer after a while. Being Gay has again become a wedge issue. I am not sure what it means but its in the news so must be newsworthy? Now though post FB IPO its turned into a People vs. Morgans match. Mark sure added some excitement. One is called JP and the other has Stanley in its last name. Damn the morgans. Meantime the Zuck is off to a honeymoon assuming his newest trick was real - that of getting married. You could pretend to do anything anyway with an online identity these days. So who knows. Wonder if he has posted his moon shots on line? Europe has of course been doing its part to keep the sundry entertained with their version of musical chairs and blame the newest idiot. A while ago the faces were a bit different but now the game continues. Who is the dumbest of them all? France got a new leader who wears glasses but am not sure what his agenda is - he claims to be a socialist but does not like to save money. Italy - who knows who is in charge there.. the quick to bolt got some other high flying jobs at the IMF or the ECB or some other vague instituions that handle other people's money. Perhaps the match up between the Android fans vs. the Apple fans will be more entertaining when it comes time to change out their phones again since none of the promised features work - the speeds are so slow - which they can go back to tweeting or updating the book with their newest blames online.

Of chocolates

I like chocolates. Godiva Dark with Almonds - not sure of the naked woman on the horse to be the icon of some choice cocoa based products but tastes good. Started in Belgium but now owned by some Turks. Cadburys - Fruit and Nut Milk Bars - awesome combination of dried fruit pieces along with a medley of nuts makes your toungue dance - started by a Brit now owen by Kraft USA. Lindt Hazelnut spheres - made by a Swiss confectioner are divine balls that melt in your mouth with a lingering nutty taste Ghirardelli Milk Crisp Squares - crunchy and light these milk squares are easy on the palate but pack some serious calories - all good I say! Originally founded by an Italian who moved around till he landed in SF Bay today also owned by the Swiss Lindt empire.

Columbia SC

 The Palmetto state.  One of the confederate kinds. History dating couple centuries back.  We visited the capital yet again this time to take in the SC State Museum. Occupying the former digs (literally remodeled) of an erstwhile cotton mill this structure is an amazing piece of reimagination.  Four floors of excitement for kids and young at heart alike. Located on the shores of the Congaree River formed when the Broad meets up with the Saluda River, this edifice is approx. 60 years old.  The front of the building has a more modern planetarium that was added about a decade ago.  The museum itself has different areas of interest segregated on each of its four floors. The first floor has gift shop and a diorama of some of the local geography including the swamps and the state beaches with audio guides to help understand what fauna thrives locally. The second floor is all about natural history and showcases animal kingdom that may have survived on this latitud...

Cost of entrepreneurship

Last night I attended a guest lecture on the subject of disruptive technology and entrepreneurship.  Lecture was free but it was used as a pitch by the University that hosted it to attract new customers. The speaker was somewhat respectable fellow who happened to hail from India and spoke eloquently.   One of the key message was around how the professors in this university were ranked among the very best money can buy. Cost of the MBA program mere $110,000 and oh we also buy some dinner if you have late class.  So now the math is simple-  is learning to be entrepreneurial worth the cost of entry? That is assuming you end up being one.   What of those that do not?  or the ones that are not successful at being the entrepreneur?  Is that being a pessimist before even being handed the glass. What I found strange is that people will bet big money on the glimmer of hope that they might just make a entrepreneurial debut and hit it big.  The unive...
