I'm persnickety, I confessed. Not, incidentally, to the point of being snarly. But still. Delightful and persnickety are not a common blend. Do you want to know why I never married? The question wasn't at the top of my list, I admitted. The old woman made me meet her eye. Listen to me; I never married because I was easily bored. It's an awful, self-defeating trait to have. It is much better to be too easily interested.

Over the last decade "shareholder" has been replaced by "stakeholder." I will remind my readers that a stakeholder is an onlooker to a gambling event. The contenders in the wager trust the stakeholder to hold their respective bets (the stakes) and at the contest's conclusion to award them to the winner. The stakeholder is one who, by definition, can have neither interest nor profit in the outcome. I believe no further comment is required.

Some say that truth is stranger than fiction
