A Bit Nervous

I am not a particularly superstitious man, but for the past 4-5 days, I wake up every morning to a rainbow in the exact same spot--directly in front of my house. These aren't Democrats-trying-
to-look-tough-on-security classed rainbows either. Every morning, I see China-shooting-down-satellites classed rainbows--full arc, full spectrum, and even Full Monty.

My interpretive options are:

1) There is gold in that boat.
2) God knows what I did last summer, but will hold off flooding the earth.
3) Whatever Wikipedia would say, but would it really be witty if I had to look it up first?
4) Something about rain every morning, sun low in the sky...


This post reminds me of a moment at work the other day--I was leaving a message with the VP of a company that makes a(n?) ubiquitous personal finance software product. I was halfway through the message before I backed myself into some sort of verbal corner. I couldn't think of anything to say, why I was calling him, what I wanted him to do--nothing. So I just stopped and hung up. I called back 5 minutes later and told him that I was driving, got cut off, and finished my message.

The point is I have nothing to say and took 300 words to say it raffishly, turbidly, and without a scintilla of sang froid. (Yess, four GRE words!)
