Lesson Learned. If you someday want to be included in the Pantheon,

you need to get your name on a Plan that gets printed and reprinted,

so you will be remembered.

Publish or Perish.

WTAWTAW (Where There's A WILL, There's A Way)

Why Plan, When we can React?

Grant me the

COURAGE to change

what should be changed; the

SERENITY to accept what

cannot be changed;

and the

WISDOM to know

the difference.
