Crisis = Danger + Opportunity


A crisis is a situation that presents danger and risk, and also opportunity if one's vision allows.

If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!

"Could do better if he tried!" Report card comments from most of my grade school teachers. Sadly, still true!

It's more frightening than the virus.

Spawned from "ideas proposed by Karl Marx".

"The group has already helped accelerate projects, including a wristband to determine if employees fail to maintain physical distancing."

Oh, Canada. What are you thinking?

I hope you vehemently reject this "new normal'. There is nothing remotely normal about any of it.

During the fantom covid dollar to peso went way up, prices went way down, few were working so it was a time to get jobs done in Baja and rebuild infrastructure, the very best of maestros were available to do their magic. It was the most productive time ever for some of us. The best maestros and talkers never stopped working. We rebuilt motors, painted cars, built fences, race cars, motos, quads, boats, cooked and we drank fresh water and ate the freshest food. An entire grocery cart full of fresh fruits, veggies, meat and fish cost $25US. It was an amazing time and now its over and back to normalcy. Peso is returning to normal, prices are skyrocketing for many items back to old prices, gas is going up and people are returning to their previous lives, and we saw the truth, Covid was a fraud for profit and control, most Delegados and certainly Mendoza are frauds, they partied and flaunted restrictions in our faces while so many suffered, isolated and out of work, Delegados were photographed partying, flaunting their own recommendations in public, while promoting fear and isolation, they're clearly motivated to promote fear and they are frauds and have lost the faith of every citizens, though, I guess that's is how it has always been and always will be, politicians are mostly corrupt puppets and frauds, except a few sincere ones. No one has faith in them and they provide no benefit to plebes.
