"I've been standin on one leg for three damn years waitin' for God to do me a favor..."
...and He ain't listenin'."

Christian Bale, in the 2007 remake of "3:10 To Yuma."

I had a very important client meeting tonight...prayed about it for a week, called up three friends yesterday and asked THEM to help me pray for it.

Went to the meeting tonight, and the client was a no-show.

I feel like I have one leg.

2. Thank you, much appreciated. Days like today keep us humble, I guess...

3. That's a drag Amerigo.
The only comfort I can give is to look at it like being in a traffic jam. Maybe it's keeping you from crashing down the road. The potential client could have ended up being a nightmare.

Here's to a better client just around the corner.:pals:

4. I hear you...I absolutely do.
There have been times where the deals that felt through were a blessing in disguise. I just need a blessing that's not wearing a disguise to balance out the scale. I'm working on it...
