Keeping the Game Close
Week after week lately, I've been turning on the Colts games and expecting it to be a rout (except the Patriots game) and I can then go on and do other things. But they seem to have this knack for keeping it interesting and making me watch the whole game. They fell down to Houston by several scores early in the first half and I was beginning to wonder if Peyton Manning could pull it off. Actually I didn't have too much doubt. I just wondered how it would happen. He did it and made the game close in the second half.
Good for the networks. Good for the commercials and not so good for my time management.
I don't think games are scripted like wrestling was but sometimes I wonder if it is ever possible. Especially with some of the games I've seen this year.

If we all just did the right thing
My viewpoint has been a bit harsh on here at times. Although I write daily in other places, it seems to be that I only post here when something gets me really riled up and that's not good. I need to change that behavior. I just wish people would just do the right thing, instead of just doing things for themselves or some group mentality.
If banks and bankers did the right thing, they could have made money and not driven the economy into the ground.
If developers did the right thing, they wouldn't be unemployed right now wishing they hadn't taken that extravagant trip a few years ago. Slow and steady.
If politicians on whichever side you want to look at, did the right thing, we'd all be better off.
If spammers didn't go so heavily in one direction all at once, it may last longer and make more money in the end.
If things had been built with energy efficiency in mind over the years and using smart design, we'd all be better off today and things would still sell.

Fresh Takes on My Viewpoint
I know I've written on the internet for years but here is a new place for my miscellaneous ramblings. It may be travel, personal, politics or web business...but it's always my viewpoint.
