A MarketPlace of Ideas                        

This is a post for me and me alone.  You can read it if you want.  But from this day forward it is do or die.  I refuse to give up. I refuse to go back to an old fashioned salaried job.   The standard engineering job that lasts 5 years plus or minus is fine for a standard engineer with an overweight wife and 2.4 children but I’ve always been way too independent for that.

I’ll die broke and homeless if I fail.  I have had no healthcare coverage for some time and I wear that as a badge of honor.

If there is anyone out there of any import in working the technology business who needs a team of technogeeks you may want to talk to me.  I am forming a crack team of Brazilian programmers that together have quite an impressive set of qualifications.   We will be looking for our first project soon.  It may be an open source project to put our name on the map.  It may be something to target some income stream.  This will be a chance to work out the bugs in the people system.  To find out relative strengths of the constituent members. 

Wish me luck Milton.  Its the spirit of adventure you spoke of that drives me on in spite of what could very legitimately called “Better Judgement”.   Who woulda knowed it ?   Milton was the first Jewish Pirate !  Arrrrrg-Vey

If you do this you will do alot towards restoring your popularity.  A few more vetos previous to this and you would have never lost it.  The populace does not respect what it perceives as weakness, even if that weakness is only a perceived one.
