The Langoliers have reached bridge?

Just a personal note of repeated disappointment...

 

Shortly after my brother and I graduated, my folks got a divorce, with cheating involved.

 

Shortly after I left the church, the church imploded with one of the three pastors dead, one cheating on church finances, and one cheating on his wife.

 

Shortly after I left the Marion law firm, the firm dissolved when the lead partner cheated everyone out of their cut of a large settlement.

 

Shortly after I left Legal Aid, Legal Aid was cheated out of a renewal of a 50-year contract.

 

Shortly after I left the Cleveland law firm, the lead partner was suspended for cheating a client.

 

Shortly after I took a hiatus from tournament bridge to focus on my family, the bridge tournament world imploded in multiple cheating scandals.

 

I am getting used to disappointment, I guess. But, it feels like the Langoliers keep coming.

 

BTW, does anyone have a list somewhere of the casualty count? I cannot seem to find a list of all of the convicted, tried pending sentencing, accused, and under investigation folks. A complete list is desired for morbidity appeasement.

It appears that if you ever visit us we should lock the doors and not let you leave.

Welcome to the Hotel California.

 

I retired in 2004 and the Math Department has, I think, become stronger since I left. I like to hope that there is no causal connection.

 

I can't help with the striving for morbidity. It's a noble goal, but I believe we all must find our own way through happiness to disaster. I manage.
