"'Potential' is a french word for 'You aint done shit yet.'"
At the end of the year, Im doing the look back with the giving thanks thing...
But for me, it is less giving thanks than a sense of ... vindication.
A swelling sense of vindication against all who wrote me off over the past 5 years.
A sense of:
Like that.
And there's more to come.

And thank you to the folk who stuck by me. Clint, Poo and the Cappy basically.
Thank you.

Thank you.
Working very late at work, I found myself on the wayback machine.

The streets were busy as usual, the traffic snarls monumental, and yet - there was very little shouting. The whole day, I heard one car honk in ALL of manhattan.
Surreal.
Store owners are rediscovering customer service by saying "youre welcome" after a customer says "thank you".
Still quite surreal.
Many of the young and fashionable are still homeless, as I saw many sleeping on trains and subway platforms late into the night, a lot of them unable to get back into their homes in lower manhattan.
Surreal.
Most folk, like I did, surrendered to the weariness, and slept. Some fitfully, some deeply.
Maybe Im putting a spin on it, maybe its just a reaction, but most folk just seem.. tired.
