Those who have been regular readers of my column over the years – by the way, Mom and Dad, I’ve been meaning to say thanks for a while – probably would count me in the “glass half full” school. In fact, they might even elect me Class Prez. I’ve long preferred up to down, high to low, happy to sad. It’s just my nature. SO PLAN THIS: The year 2010 will leave its predecessor in the dust. OK, I realize that this prediction isn’t hanging me out on the longest limb of the tree. Every year since the Great Depression would leave 2009 in its dust – economically speaking, anyway. But, because economy plays ... oh ... THE MOST SIGNIFICANT ROLE OF ALL, where business is concerned, this not-so-bold claim still carries oh-so-significant clout – whether it’s right or wrong. CLEARLY, THE CONSENSUS during the show was that those glove-wearing drivers have taken the wheel, finally, and have turned the corner, finally. And now they’re ready to put the pedal to the metal.
