Well, the weekend has come and gone again in a flash. The weekend was good, but it seems unfair how quickly the darn things fly by. This week is bound to be disorienting for Steanso. Team Bloom should be returning at some point from Pittsburgh, Killer Kraber should be returning from her birthday pool tournament in Amarillo (Happy birthday, Jennifer!!!!!), and Team Wilson should be jetting off for Colorado tomorrow. I'm not even sure when The Admiral and Karebear are returning from Italy, but it's sometime this week. Steanso doesn't really like having so many friends in transit. It makes him uneasy.
To top things off, Rounball and McSteans will be arriving in H-Town on Saturday morning in order to spend the holiday weekend with The Admiral and Karebear. This, of course, means that Steanso and Cassidy will be motoring eastward at some point on Friday evening or Saturday morning.
What else? Not too much.
I have been working on becoming a better banjo player and spending as much time in the water as possible.
The federal government is apparently tracking international money transactions through a Belgian firm which manages worldwide banking traffic. For once, though, Steanso isn't going to kick and scream too much. Although this is an additional privacy infringement, Steanso does (believe it or not) acknowledge that some privacy infringements are necessary in order to track international crime and terrorism, and I'd much rather the government track relatively large scale international financial transactions than the private phone calls of American citizens within the U.S.. As a matter of fact, this is the kind of police work that I think investigators should be doing rather than infringing on the basic civil liberties of citizens within the borders of the U.S.
OK. That's it for now. Hope you're having a good one.
