The cool people at Kodak are going to run my photo again on New Year's Eve to make up for the mishap. I'm psyched again!

Hey Tim

I drove up to NYC to see my photo and the jumbotron wasn't working due to some construction at the Marriott. So, I wasted a bundle to go up there. Fortunately the editors at Kodak were sympathetic and offered to run the photo again.

Damon,

Maybe you know this Chinese tale?

A man has served as the Emperor's chef for years and is given a plot of land as reward.** The man's friends all say, "What good luck,* You have been truly blessed."* The man replies, "Maybe good, maybe bad, too soon to tell."*


The man goes out to see the property and it is literally covered with rocks.* His friends say, "What bad luck, you have been cursed and not blessed, with this land."* The man replies, "Maybe good, maybe bad, too soon to tell."*


The man is working in the field with his team of oxen.* A passerby notes that having a team of oxen is quite good fortune for a man clearing a field.* The man replies, "Maybe good, maybe bad, too soon to tell."


The ox team goes unexpectedly lame and the same passerby observes the bad fortune of the beasts' demise.* The man replies, "Maybe good, maybe bad, too soon to tell."*


Without the ox team, the man gets his only son in field to help him clear the stumps and rocks.* A friend drops by and observes that, "You are truly blessed to have such a sting son to help you in the field."* The man replies, "Maybe good, maybe bad, too soon to tell."*


One day, a stone falls on the son, breaking his leg.* Someone observes, "What bad luck has befallen you since your son can no longer help with this hard work."* The man replies, "Maybe good, maybe bad, too soon to tell."**


A time of war befalls the country and all the able bodied young men are forced into the Emperor's army.* Someone whose son has been conscripted into service observes the good luck of the farmer whose son is still at his side since his broken leg made it impossible for him to fight.* The man replies, "Maybe good, maybe bad, too soon to tell."*


Things go poorly in the war and the emperor is overthrown.* The new emperor rescinds the gift of land that was given to the man forcing him to return to the palace as a lowly cook.* His friends observe the ill fate of having lost his farm to the new emperor. The man simply replies, "Maybe good, maybe bad, too soon to tell."
