Early Morning Battles and Observations

Early this morning, I was challenged at the gym, once again, for running water while shaving.

A man approached and said, "You must not be from around here." The gym is in a hotel, so there are often outsiders. Yesterday, Kevin Oleary was at the club.

I said to the man who approached me, "No, you must not understand basic economics."

And then I went to my permanent locker, where I now keep a stash of my booklet. Dear Fellow Health Club Member, Please Leave Me the Hell Alone: An economic analysis of the water "shortage."

I handed him a copy.

He nervously looked at it and said, "Good title."

"Read it, let me know what you think," I said.

Then onto breakfast. When leaving, after two eggs, bacon and real coffee, I passed two men in a booth. A well-dressed, well-spoken man with a gray ponytail. was saying to the other. "Oligopoly, I never heard of that word before. That's a cool word, oligopoly."

We have a lot of work to do, my friends.
