“You spent seven years learning every little nuance of the fishing trade before you were granted the gift of learning from this great captain?” I ask.

“Yes.”

“And even then you had to sit at the feet of this great master for many months before you felt as if you knew what you were doing?”

“Yes.”

“Then why did you think you could become a banker and speculate in financial markets, without a day of training?”

“That’s a very good question,” he says. He thinks for a minute. “For the first time this evening I lack a word.” As I often think I know exactly what I am doing even when I don’t, I find myself oddly sympathetic.

Hootie Redux

On March 11, Hootie & the Blowfish stopped by the Silverton for the renaming and re-grand opening of the official “Hootie & the Blowfish’s Shady Grove Lounge.” Members of the band, who will be taking over naming rights and adding menu items and band paraphernalia to the lounge, mingled with fans.
