At the root of most of our problems:

- We don't understand the problem

- Our mental-model of the situation the problem lives within is too simple or completely wrong

Warnock wins!

Even though there is still 36% of the votes to go, DeKalb County in GA sure doesn't like Herschel Walker!

Just drove by Twitter HQ.
Lights are still on at the top floor.

Enjoy Times Square!

Walking through midtown Manhattan tonight. First time here in many years.

Walked by Tiffany hoping to see some pretty windows. Nope. All under construction.

I emerge from the scaffolding to stand right, square in front of Trump Tower.

A little weird.

Still on the floor.
And we are landing soon.

They seem to be moving.
They are 20 rows up, so hard to see.

Drama on my flight.

Getting close to a final design on the column capitals.
These will be 3D printed.
This project has been in the making for 9 years.

My 97 years old mother calls this morning.
Tells me my sister thinks she has had a stroke.
I say "Gee'sh mom! That's what ambulances are for. She should be calling 911!"

That wasn't the thing to say.

Lots of tears followed.

I call the sister.

"How are you? Mom says something is wrong."

"I'm ok."

"Well, could you call mom back and let her know? She's a mess right now."

Not the right thing to say.
Apparently, according to her, I have deep-seated anger.

I do now.

Just in:

Went to a bar tonight with the wife.
Met some wonderful people.
Made new friends.
Helped a local business.
Networked into an industry I've been trying to do for a year.
Drank alot.

It was a productive Tuesday evening.

Lovely view on a chilly evening on the roof in San Francisco.
