Olympic Report

Actually any report that I could give can be seen in the local newspapers -- so I will not bother to report other than two of my three sons are having a great time partying in Vancouver. It really looks like they are having a blast (for those of you born after the 80's -- that means having a good time).

The weather has been sunny, the temperature is above zero and no snow on the ground. I am tempted to crank up my motorcycle but that would bring on the snow without any question.

I have just about had enough of the winter even if it has been relatively mild. I have now booked the annual trip to Cuba for an overdose of mojitos and cigars. It is my destination of choice since there is no reason to take my computer. A week of doing nothing -- I can't wait to be bored to death. It is an interesting feeling - but just for a short period of time.

And when I get back, the next weekend the clocks are set back an hour -- I am always amused by the fact that it is reported that we get an extra hour of sunlight -- not if you wake up at sunrise. But, nevertheless -- it will give me a reason to get the motorcycle ready for when the snow and salt disappear. and then, and then, and then -- I get ready to bring out the car - none too soon. yee haw! but never fool with mother nature - she has a way of waking up and biting you on the rear.

Yada Yada Yada

Alright so I have a limited vision of the world. My entire range of interests amount to: motorcycling; health care issues; ballroom dancing; television and such bad habits as cigar smoking. What the heck -- you only come this way once and it isn't a trial run.

But for the most part I spend my days dealing with cynics and persons who actually have to be paranoid. In my case, "just because I am paranoid, doesn't mean the world isn't out to get me." It is the nature of the legal profession. However, there are times that even I can get some major enjoyment out of the interaction that comes from being a part of the legal profession.

Even more so, I have spent decades dealing with risk management in the profession of chiropractic and all of the difficulties that arise in health care. Well -- will wonders never cease. Yesterday I received an email indicating that the CTV Olympic web site was up and operational. Within that site is a health and wellness area and to my utter amazement -- there it was -- the chiropractic corner. It is spectacular, fabulous and a tribute to the profession and the CCA.

So check it out -- once, twice or a dozen times -- and tell your friends, family, associates and strangers. It is worth a visit.

To the CCA -- congratulations on a job very well done.
