"It's a mess," said Eric M.

That's from the Washington Post today--a great and informative article. And also pretty frightening. The fact that this whole carnival sideshow is being run by ex-Goldman superstars says a lot about how the United States ended up in this financial black hole in the first place. And I do mean black hole.
And we've all eased into fall here 30 miles out into the Atlantic. The colors have peaked and last night we had what is referred to as a full beaver moon. I couldn't possibly explain on this blog.

Even my buddy Gus is shopping for winter flannels.
