As a certified public accountant I feel that I have had the training and after 40 years in the industry, certainly the experience. to share with all of you who read this blog, the way to legally make a small fortune.  In these days where our chance to make such a fortune is shrinking daily, we have to be on our toes.  We must take the opportunity to see that we have ample funds left to cover our golden years.

Here is the simple plan:  Take a large fortune, buy a small 50 acre ranch and in no time at all you will have a small fortune.  There you go.  As simple as simple can be.

All kidding aside, we have had a blast so far actively changing our barebones hunting camp into a much more female friendly hostel.  We will keep the outhouse for nostalgic reasons and just in case an epidemic of food poison strikes but we are well on the way to having a foo-foo bathroom on site.  We will have hot water, flushing toilet and shelving for towells.  No hanging the towell over the shower door.  We did get a shock when the state septic tank inspector advised that I should pour a cup of dog food down the toilet each week to help the septic system maintain the proper degree of enzymes.  Kinda makes you wonder just exactly what you are feeding your beloved puppy?  If it will eat septic tank sludge, well the inside of your dog cant be squeeky clean now can it.  The carpenters start tomorrow and the plumber will be there Wed., electrician will be there on Sat.  It has been slow but has speeded up some now.

The latest thing of TV is this business about the airplane that is moving.  Am I the only person who watched that show ” Lost”?  That seemed a bit far fetched at the time but well, maybe, ???? That could be the reason why I watch all the survivor shows on TV.  I am currently enthralled with one entitled ” no mans land”.  This show is basically about folks who live on the edge of nowhere and live with whatever they can find, bargain or trade for.  Interesting.  They show ways to develope water systems, find food, shelter.  All things you would need to know if you were “lost”.

Warren Buffet has promised to give a person $ 1 billion dollars if they fill out a perfect final basketball schedule.  Hell, if I knew who was playing I would try.
