I'm Confused (but it wouldn't be the first time)

I own some stock in a small Telephone Company in the Midwest (inherited from my parents). Yesterday I received a copy of an Accountant's Report sent to the Board of Directors of the company.

The third paragraph reads as follows:

"Management has elected to omit substantially all of the disclosures and the statements of cash flow required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. If the omitted disclosures and statements were included in the financial statements, they might influence the user's conclusions about the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Accordingly, these financial statements are not designed for those who are not informed about such matters".

What the hell does that mean? I think I'm insulted.

Cheating

Tiger Woods and Jesse James have been vilified for cheating on their wives. Let me first say, I do not condone their actions. If they wanted to screw around, they shouldn't have gotten married in the first place. It's hard for non celebrities to keep that kind of thing a secret and much harder if the world is watching you.

But what about the skaney women who slept with these guys knowing they were married? Don't they share equally in the responsibility for the break down of these marriages? Instead, they are being rewarded by becoming celebrities (if only for a short time) themselves. They could have said no. If I were the wives, I would be going after these women as well.

(I know skaney is ms - can't find it in the dictionary)

I don't think man was meant to be monogamous but if you stand up in front of all you friends and family and say you will, then you should - or get a divorce.

As an aside: Tiger's infidelity was probably a good thing for golf. I bet more people are watching the Masters that ever before. I know I am. Also, there isn't anything else on today.

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter to all my Christian friends.

To all others - I the hope the Easter Bunny brought you something anyway.
