Monday Morning Memo

Jeffery Eisenberg sent this to me the other day, “You can warn your friend that he is being conned, and he will get angry at you. And when the whole thing comes crashing down and he loses his money, and he can no longer deny that you were right, he will never forgive you. He will forgive the crook, but he will not forgive the people who warned him about the crook. The crook just took his money. But you made him feel dumb.”
– David Frum,
on the Bulwark podcast

“I’ve learned it’s also that way when you warn people about relationships. If you want to keep your friend, keep your mouth shut. It is far better to comfort them than to warn them.” – Jeffrey

HOT TIP – Make Yourself Happy. Click Jeffrey’s name in the line above. Sign up for his class Aug. 13-14.  It will give you more confidence, competence, and consideration. Your teeth will be whiter and you’ll be a better dancer.

Random Quote:

“We often talk about Hurricane Katrina and 9/11 in terms of failures: failures of intelligence, failures of planning, failures of communication. But these catastrophes were first and foremost failures of imagination. Did we know that a major hurricane could destroy New Orleans? Yes: it was even part of the tour guides' spiel. Did we know terrorists wanted to bring down the World Trade Center? Yes: they made a credible attempt in 1993. And what did we do with what we knew? Nothing. Some disasters, I think, are so big and so awful they are literally beyond our power to conceive. So, we dismiss them out of hand, retreat to the ‘knowledge' that a thing can't happen because, well, it just can't.”

- columnist Leonard Pitts, July 6, 2006
