Yar there, all you landlubbers. It’s me, not-even-close-to Captain Ed coming from Rosario, a small port in the Islands of San Juan. I don’t have much time, battery, or signal, so today’s missive will be short and, well short.
As long as I have been connected wirelessly, I have always thought of myself as “not wired,” meaning, I could go where I want, when I want, and lacking a wired “connection” meant nothing. The wireless world would serve my every need.
That now built-in thinking received a shattering blow the last two days. Here in the land of the USA, nor far from a major seaport (Seattle), I ran out of wireless. I have been offline for two days, and I learned a thing or two about myself, as I skulked here and there trying to find a minimal signal, enough to “get online.”
Yup, I learned something about existing in a world that depends on wireless technology. More on that on Monday, but for now, I will try to see if I find enough umph to find out what the market did on Thursday and what it is doing today …
Well, no luck, so I will catch up with you on that on Monday. In the meantime, I am letting my wireless anxiety go. I will enjoy my sailing trip. I will enjoy my sailing trip. I will enjoy my sailing trip.
Trade in the day; invest in your life …
