The Privateer

My take on life, current affairs, politics and the comedy that is society in general.

Name:
Location: Southeast Asia, and beyond

I have an opinion about EVERYTHING, and am decidedly incorrect by most standards. I am generally non-complying if rules are not properly explained and/or make no sense to me. Thus I don't believe in equality of any form or shape.

Back for good

It's hard to believe that almost 18 months have passed since I last blogged.
Whereever did the time go?

I got married again (amazing, I actually found another human being who seems to able to live with me 24/7; a scary thought, I know) in July, and the church wedding is scheduled for February next year, because the logistics involved are herculian. We are carting about two dozen family members from accross the world here, invite another four dozen of her friends and all four of mine, as well as a number of wanna-bes and prospective friends in case the need arises in the future. Getting hotels organised, plane tickets, pick-ups, venues, truck loads of booze, etc. is no mean task.

We also consolidated our far flung mini-ventures into a more coherent structure and moved into new premises with views to kill for. Well, you know, the kind of views I like, bridges, express ways, harbours, airports, shopping centers - the life blood of commerce and basis of civilization.
Other people go to nature to relax, I go and sit in a cafe in a shopping mall and enjoy the vibe of commerce, wheeling and dealing, as it were.
Okay, the views include the timbered hills, the Indian Ocean and lots of greenery, and we got pot plants (plants in pots, potted plants, not plants of pot) all over the place, but it's a highrise and I love to soak up the atmosphere of freighters in the harbour, busses carting workers to factories, movement, progress, commerce, hope for the future. Ka-ching.

Other than that, not much new to report; but I will resume regular ramblings after this glimpse into my personal life (yes, it IS a life, thank you very much), and hope to do so more frequently again.
