Letters from NYC

What's in a Birth Date?

I'm still not feeling well. I'm going to the doctor's later today where I will sit glued to the TV for news on Ophelia. Half of the staff from our affected 21 branch offices who were affected by Katrina were relocated to Texas, including my best friend. At this point I think our whole country can use a break. So in an effort to distract here's my contribution for the day. If you post your birthday on your site let me know and I'll link back to you. Happy Wednesday! Happy 1st day of Fall, my favorite season.

Your Birthdate: June X

Born on the Xth day of the month, you have a special gift for business, as you can conceive and plan on a grand scale without batting an eyelash. You have good executive and entepreneurial skills and you're a good judge of values and character. You should try to form your own business, because you have such a strong desire to be in control. You are generally reliable when it comes to handling money and can be trusted in this regard. Idealistic by nature, you are never too busy to spend some time on worthwhile causes, especially if managerial support are needed. There is much potential for material success associated with this number.

Had anyone said this about me 12 years ago I would have said they were lying. My reaction now is that's pretty much on the money. The difference is that since then I was able to serve 2 terms as President of Student Gov't at my old university, governing over a constituincy of 30,000 students with a fiscal budget of 3.5 million dollars. There are 2 things that stand out about that time: 1) how every one wanted me to throw money to solve every problem, something I refused to do and as a result was labeled the cheapest Pres in the school's history (hey, but I balanced our budget!); 2) How terribly sleep deprived I was, still am in fact. Tonight I plan on correcting that!
