Why I am a Success and Why I will never be a Success

Where Keith plays hooky

I had planned to spend the afternoon today working on a long overdue MercuryMover release. Instead my son and i:

Made a music video for The Alphabet of Nations
Made a stop motion video of two pencils in a flying V formation
Went grocery shopping
Went out for some very tall and chocolatey mugs of hot cocoa

At this rate, i'll never achieve the kind of success that will make me rich. Of course, this is exactly the reason why i wanted to go indie in the first place.

Hi Keith - Sounds to me like you are already rich! (rich != $)

Paul, on your next trip back to the windy city, the hot chocolate is on me!

@ Mike: +1

There's much more to "rich" than money - and it appears Keith is far richer than the majority of those that drive nicer cars and live in bigger houses than he.

Congrats for keeping life in the proper perspective.
