Quick Blog-by Shooting

Trying to get Sunni's Salon back on schedule, so not much time for chat this morning ... a few quick (and nonmedical!) observations instead.

Got this month's interview nailed down -- just need to htmlize it. It's a fun one, with a very dear friend ... and Kirsten, when you're back from your vacation, maybe you'll want to consider the new business venture we identify. Or maybe not.

I've finally offloaded the pictures I took on our recent adventure to Colorado, and chose a few to bore y'all with. That won't happen until the Salon is done, though, so you've time to prepare for the dreaded onslaught of vacation snaps.

Saw a decent, brief consideration of going expat in Mexico by Fred Reed. Good info there, as far as it goes; and he's right, Mexico has a lot more de facto freedom than the USSA. (For more information, see the PT section at Doing Freedom! [not currently online].) If you aren't interested in doing the permission-slip-as-leash routine Reed describes, there are ways of disappearing far enough to accomplish that ... but it takes considerably more planning, of course. Desert, city, tropical mountain rain forest, rural ranch ... all those options and others are available in Mexico. Fred's suggestion of going down for a week is an excellent way to test the waters, provided one actually does some scouting instead of touristy stuff. Worth considering, along with Costa Rica, for those considering a "get out of Dodge" strategy ...
