[quote=Allan from Fallbrook][quote=KSMountain]”Chance favors the prepared mind” is a saying I’ve found to be true.[/quote]
KSM: How about Semper Gumby (Always Flexible)? I like that one. Along with the Six P’s (Prior Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance).[/quote]
Now that I’ve wiped off my screen, I can write to tell you that I like the “Six P’s” quote.

I wish you wouldn’t have picked Palin as an example. I agree w/the example, but I can see this turning to politics. I hope not. I got the point, which was anosognosia.[/quote]
This is a perfect example of what the article is about. The Pigg board has been in turmoil over the political hijacking in recent weeks, yet the Sarah Palin point by e-dropper, was he not capable of realizing what he was doing?

I think e-dropper realized it, which is why he/she said, Again, in mentioning Ms. Palin, I’m not attempting to sway the direction of this thread to one that is political. I think the subject matter of the NYT article is strong enough to stand on its own, and hope that other Piggs will weigh in with their thoughts and opinions on it.
We don’t want it to be politics. It was a preface used as an example and no one’s intending to be about politics. (God, let’s not go there)
