Micromanagers are only effective when they have incompetent staff. But then why in the world would any manager retain incompetent staff?
I’m part of the school that believes in the following:
1. There’s no such thing as a good candidate/politician; there are only bad apples and then there are the really rotten ones.
2. The main purpose of elections is to alter people’s psychology. Doing so changes people’s expectations for the economy or at least makes it easier to play out in people’s minds. In short, elections have more to do with economics than politics.
3. What is the meaning of pi?
I love it how those in positions of power or influence (conservatives and liberals alike) like to dumb down key issues. Take for instance, the debate over stem cell research. You have one side saying that it’s immoral and the other side saying that it’s very practical and necessary.
If only things were that easy to figure out…
Suppose that one’s against stem cell research…..if one day that person has disease X and the only cure is through stem cell therapy in another country (that allows stem cell research), would that person consider making the trip?
I spent some time studying rosters for every NBA team and here’s what caught my eye. The Orlando Magic probably have the most ‘balanced’ team in the league. The Magic have improved the most this offseason. Here’s why:
1. Dwight Howard, only 20 years of age, has improved his offensive game considerably. He actually has some post-up moves to go with his rebounds/blocks. Did you see how he made Ben Wallace a non-factor last night?
2. Grant Hill looks healthy (and quick). Still one of the better all-around players in the NBA.
3. The supporting cast is not too shabby. No glaring weaknesses.
Prediction: If they stay healthy, they will at least make the Eastern Conference Finals.
