I don't mean I've mastered some kind of Eastern spiritual technology etc. but just that I can accept the situation for what it is, though the announcers and the disorganization bugged me and I felt impatient with that aspect I otherwise felt very calm and comfortable to be sharing the day with my youngest and my grandson. Sweet.<br />And Miles, the only thing missing was you since you're the one who introduced me to what a manual even was by your own mastery of it, at least on the basic level. And thanks so much for the link to the event—or the few minutes edit of the over eight hours of watching these competitors practice and compete (and some of the most original stuff isn't even on that!). I'm going to add a postscript to the post with that link for those who don't bother to check comments.Lallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05310472614196384595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4567168789336947243.post-3748222911049319652010-08-22T19:43:50.968-04:002010-08-22T19:43:50.968-04:00Dear M:
