I occasionally run across books that I think may provide insight into my quest for simplicity, balance, and the elimination of the ‘bigger is better, more is better’ mindset. “The 4-Hour Workweek: Escape 9-5, Live Anywhere, and Join the New Rich” by Timothy Ferriss has some interesting ideas and perspectives. A recommended read if you’ve ever thought about getting off that treadmill and doing things a bit differently. Like any book, I don’t agree with all of it / some of it is not applicable, but a worthwhile read nonetheless.

Check out Ferriss’ site for more.

Summary: pretty eventful race:Hamilton’s first pole, leads most of race, and eventual maiden win; Alonso’s mistakes: stop/go penalty for pitting during one of the safety car sessions when pits were closed; Kubica’s horrific crash which thankfully only resulted in a concussion / sprained ankle; Sato passing Räikkönen and Alonso at various points in the race (’Super Best Friends’ passing a Ferrari and a McLaren?!?); four safety car sessions during the race (a record); Massa getting black-flagged for leaving the pits during a red.

This also would have been the weekend the ‘boys’ got back together again for an F1 outing - unfortunately, we didn’t get it done this year. There’s always next year….or the next…..
