Good Fortune – Something I’m really thankful to have had

• I don’t have to use Windows as an operating system.
• Someone with an IQ greater than room temperature will be at the helm in less than 60 days.
• Carpool lane stickers – don’t know how I ever lived without them.
• Internet Protocol – I couldn’t have made a living without it.
• Struggling with weight. It’s much better than the alternative of trying to find enough food.
• Air travel. As much as I bitch and moan about it, being able to visit loved ones for a few days is priceless.
• Friends and family. Believe it or not, I have both!
• Having a job. I can’t imagine the stress of finding something new to do in this economy at this time.
• Options and opportunities. By virtue of birth, nothing more, nothing less, I’ve been given the opportunity to create a great life.

There are clearly many, many more things to be thankful about. But that’s a good list. I’m most thankful for the unlimited affection of our dog, my beautiful, smart, healthy daughter, and my most lovely, intelligent, patient spouse. Hope you all enjoy a nice Thanksgiving!
