Zrbinghy Siuslaw. Got Me?

Posted on July 26th, 2004 in Daily Grind.

I find it perfectly natural to talk about computer programming, investing, growing bamboo trees, and extended backpacking trips all in the same breath. However all I get in return are looks of confusion. Am I the only one who understands me? Is the bigger picture really that difficult to grasp?

    Maybe you should try articulating all topics completely instead of jumbling them all together. Like: “Java returns need water in the mountains.” Once you master this skill you are on your way to “Winning friends and influencing people!” ;)

    Are the people you talk to too LAZY to look for your big picture? You do make us work for it, Scott. Are you HUNGRY for that kind of effort and understanding from others?

    Well, so long as you continue to drop fascinating clues in the Thought Distillery, I definitely look forward to the challenge.
