Sign of the Times

The Lunar New Year has come and gone. Earthquakes in Haiti, Chile, Taiwan, Japan and now Turkey. The hot and dry season beats down with unrelenting dullness - I'm challenged enough to NOT be dulled and so far i'm ok. In Europe, floods and wet weather. The local economy seems to be on an uptrend, the local stock market post-Lunar New Year is rallying once again. Interest rates are "normalising" (a tick up). I'm changing jobs. The governing party is trying to buy over enough MPs to form a two-thirds majority in Parliament so that it can re-draw electoral constituencies in its favour. Some MPs take the money. Some take promotions. Our oil is going to run out in about 20 years.

Ahhh March, life goes on.
