Status Quo
May 23, 2016
This evening I am supposed to attend a nine course dinner hosted by a cartel of landowners who have been blocking my efforts to buy more land. I told their representative, I will not be free for dinner….can we perhaps reschedule for lunch instead.
He told me. It’s alright….we can eat together any other time thereafter.

‘There is no point in being friends just for the sake of being friends. There are times when it makes perfect sense to say and even hold to the belief, ‘we have so little in common, why don’t you stay there and I here. Why don’t you do your thing and I keep to my business.’ I don’t doubt, that may not be an arrangement resembling friendship of any known kind – but it’s one that certainly clearer and less inclined to cause you and them sleepless nights.’
