I’m glad you and your family got to Europe. Thanks for the latest Griddlecakes, I was going through withdraw.

Welcome back! Glad you had a great vacation. And tell The Other Ron to just come back, he adds to the shows dynamic.

I had a blink moment once I bought a NES system for $5.00 at a garage sale, but the controls were hard so I got a refund.

Unfortunately, all of the BLINK moments I can remember having are more along the lines of your last example… something that I’ll mentally beat myself up over for years. Is there a school for better BLINK training? I haven’t read the book, but I wonder if it tries to tell us not to FEAR the BLINK instincts and to always do what’s BEST. Interesting and thought provoking episode.
