1. Our threads are quite frayed.

2. Tufte writes wonderful books. I have two. I also have taken one or two of his classes. Unfortunately, in person, he will brook no opinion other than his own.

3. Managers, for the most part, like to see pretty presentations with not much detail. I liken these presentations to medieval manuscripts which the monks beautifully illuminated so that their royal, but illiterate, patrons had something to show off to their fellow royalty.

4. I retire in lessb than two weeks.
