    Consulting the Oracle. Asking the right question.

    I am headed to the oracle at Delphi today. I am going to ask about my path forward in my own life.

    what would want me to ask for you today or if you went on your own?

    Without friends none of this is possible.

    Is this finally the year for The Cleveland Indians?

          If the answer is 42, what is the question?

            Be careful what you wish for.
            The priestess of the oracle was off her head on the chemical fumes and her answers were cryptic at best,
            The most famous case in point was Croesus who thought that the prophesy was victory in a war against the Persians. It was not.
            It really is quite difficult to build an ugly wooden boat.

              The Oracle tells each of us the same answer, because at root each of us ask the same questions.

                          Simpler is better, except when complicated looks really cool.
