And you felt it necessary to share this because...?

Dunno. Just a feeling. Turned a corner. A tipping point. Something is in the air. Anticipation. Can't put my finger on it.

I felt just the opposite way last August, like things were too calm, that things were somehow too excruciatingly quiet, which is usually a sign that the bottom is about to drop out. Katrina hit before the end of the month.

This time it feels completely different, like everything is just flying apart everywhere you look.
