******************

Yesterday while taking the early bus to work (so I could go to the gym before the office), it was mostly overcast. But the sun was rising in the east and there was a break in the clouds over the Cascades. A small shaft of reddish light was shining out between the mountains - it looked like Mordor was in Eastern Washington.

******************

As I walked from my bus stop downtown toward the gym, a disheveled-looking guy walking in the other direction caught my eye and proclaimed, "Hell. This is Hell." He didn't seem angry or agitated - just disappointed.

******************

I played a rousing game of "If *I* had that kind of money" with my friend P* online yesterday, after having a gripe about the Rich Guy CEO of my company. P* said that if he had that kind of money, he would get involved with a company that makes Sterling engines and other kinds of innovative technology that could be put to use in developing nations that could help communities become self-sustaining without destroying the environment.

If I had that kind of money, I would form a nonprofit organization that would help domestic workers like maids and nannies get health insurance.

My coworker A* said that if he had that kind of money, he would buy houses in his (kind of ghetto) neighborhood and fix them up really well and then sell them at a profit.

What would you do?

Comments:
if i had that kind of money i would use it to fund research to find alternative fuels, since the bush administration would rather drill in wildlife preserves than spend the money to find alternatives.

glad you're doing well in micro!
anatomy is HARD! - cat
 
If I had that kind of money, I'd be funding medical missions to Third World countries.
