Last night a friend contacted me with information of change.  It's no surprise but I guess the phrase from Type O "the end my friend is not near, the hour, in fact is quite here" applies.  Changes are afoot and they benefit none of us, signalling only the creep towards demise we've all been anticipating.  Should we be use to this by now?  Maybe.  It's interesting how some tidbits this person didn't realize they had aligned w/ other rumors I've heard and other things I've been waiting for (things I'd do if it were my bottom line).
