While here I sit, broken-hearted, a Tiger and Federer fan who's seen the former hung by his own petard, while the latter continues telling the American public that private money provided to Malawi kids will make some sort of difference -- but, certainly on a non-global scale - before the globe disappears.
But I digress. Possibly another Flickr Pic will pull it all into focus:

That captured, I took a break and turned on The Eye in my living room, just in time to catch the Tennis Channel informing me from New Yawk that Federer had lost AND one of the ball-girls at the U.S. Open has an artificial leg from the knee down. In fact it was a 5-minute section about the ball-girl and who knows, maybe the girl's 15 minutes of fame. So momentarily I melted, but then recovered and realized this illustrates exactly the difference between money and the rest of us: money thinks the happiness of one person is pretty much all we can accomplish on earth, whereas all of us trying to change things measure success in a totally different language, namely, the proposed happiness of the many.
