September 25, 2010
Oktoberfest typically begins in late September. This year it runs from September 18th to October 3rd, 2010.
To celebrate Oktoberfest, the Sam Adams Harvest Collection.
The beers are interesting and tasty. The bottled Sam Adams Oktoberfest is better than the tap version, a rare event. The tap is very good but the bottle has more flavor.
Michael Lewis is always interesting, so I will see what he has to say about the last financial collapse. His latest article in Vanity Fair about Greece: Beware of Greeks Bearing Bonds is required reading.
Picked this one up from the Queens Library. Great book, all about Heuristics which are cognitive rules of thumb, hard-wired mental shortcuts that everyone uses every day in routine decision-making and judgment.
Gladwell used the term"Thin-Slicing" in Blink.
This book offers a quick tour of such topics as: familiarity heuristic;acceptance heuristic and default heuristic or consistency heuristic. The introduction cites to Avalanche victims and the poor decisions that were made: First Paper and Second Paper.
Looks like the Yankees got to climb to the light.
