(Looking at this log, I suspect that the entries will start to be longer and longer apart.)
Should I feel guilty that it’s been so long since I wrote here? I think I’ll skip that. Although I haven’t mentioned getting the
Platinum Family Tree Maker with the six months of Ancestry dot com. That makes me feel less guilty, even though
I’ve only spent two days with it so far, and that is another opportunity for
guilt. Not taking that one, yet, though.
Found the following quote on
Emory’s website. “Fear operates all the
time in the financial markets, Gregory Berns, director of the Emory Center for Neuropolicy, told PBS Nightly Business Report. The herd mentality, or the idea that other
people know more than you do, is “extremely potent, extremely hard to resist,”
he says..”
I could do something with that. Dad was always railing about people being
sheep. This is a different way of
looking at the same thing. Without the
bitter reproach.
I may keep the silver serving spoons written about above. (Last post.) Just because extra serving spoons can be
handy. I’ll use them for pot lucks and
places where I don’t care if they get hurt or come back.
Oooo. Guilt over Dad’s
Ranting. Here’s some videos regarding the quote above. The
relate rather well to his “People are Sheep” rant. (Extended Interview with Dr. Gregory Berns of Fear and Finances.)

The link above no longer works. Who Dr. Gregory Berns is can be found here: .
This is a transcript of a very short interview with him. And here is a speech he gave that's on YouTube. One of those links will probably last for at least a few years.
