what's this .. socializing?

twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 2012.01.06

Tonight we met for a potluck dinner with some friends, and friends of theirs.

The venue may have changed by 8,500 km, but some things remain constant. Three Japanese, two Canadians, Two Koreans, a handful of "hybrid" kids. Sub in Americans for the Koreans and that's the mix we'd have been hanging around with in Tokyo. We even had a Chinese-Malaysian representative.

Hopefully this represents a new trend for 2012. We certainly didn't get out much for 2011.

Over the long term the only alternative to Risk Management is Crisis Management. Crisis Management is much more embarrassing, expensive, and time consuming.
