On the one hand, I'm getting too old for this stuff. The daily battle entices me less and less. I dream of beaches, palm trees waving in the wind. I gravitate to books about space travel and biographies of people who gave it all up for an existence in the South of France, say, or the South Sea Islands. In meetings, I find I can't listen to meaningless drivel anymore without wanting to get up and leave. That's a significant liability. PowerPoint presentations in particular put me into a sleep so deep it involves drooling. The smallest things irritate me way too much, also. I'm up every night at 3 A.M. wondering why I'm up every night at 3 A.M. No matter how small the potential snafu or fubar situation, it rears up and seizes my imagination like a golem. I need some relief. I've been at this 25 years. I may need to retire.Thu, 21 Jun 2007 09:39:00 EDThttp://money.cnn.com/2007/04/03/news/funny/hawking/index.htmhttp://money.cnn.com/2007/04/03/news/funny/hawking/index.htmIf a world-renowned physicist and a legendary video game developer make an odd Mutt-and-Jeff pairing on earth, what sort of odd couple will they make on the verge of outer space?Tue, 03 Apr 2007 15:57:00 EDThttp://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/asiapcf/07/04/talkasia.hawking.script/index.htmlhttp://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/asiapcf/07/04/talkasia.hawking.script/index.htmlHR: Hugh Riminton SH: Stephen HawkingTue, 04 Jul 2006 10:01:00 EDThttp://www.cnn.com/2005/SHOWBIZ/books/04/27/ew.book.history/index.htmlhttp://www.cnn.com/2005/SHOWBIZ/books/04/27/ew.book.history/index.htmlIt's probably silly to worry about destabilizing the marriage of novelists Nicole Krauss and Jonathan Safran Foer by comparing their books, because the couple is so clearly asking for it.Wed, 27 Apr 2005 16:29:00 EDThttp://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/fortune_archive/2002/04/29/322014/index.htmhttp://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/fortune_archive/2002/04/29/322014/index.htm"Who Can You Trust?" asks a special report on CNBC, and most other business media have raised the same question.
