We've had a great deal of fun this evening cooking dinner, and having our usual Sunday night meal. It's a blast these days because the boys are old enough to participate. In fact, Chris, who works at an Asian restaurant a couple of days a week, carved the chicken tonight, and was a major help in the meal.
Afterward, and after a couple of glasses of wine, I was doing my best to look impressive, leaning up against the door post to the living room and providing a VERY fetching smile… Janice asked "What ARE you doing?"… "well, I'm being sexy and svelte…"… gales of laughter… no, make that HURRICANES of laughter. Darn good thing we've been married for over 20 years… my feelings weren't hurt in the least.
So, keep all of the stories about iotum today in perspective. It's April 1st. No, Google hasn't offered us $520 million (although that would be a HECKUVA return for the small group of investors that are in iotum), and try to keep your hurricanes of laughter to a minimum, lest you hurt our feelings.
Cheers!
