It's Sunday night and I am on the couch trying to watch "60 Minutes" with my wife. With school starting the following week, my three boys are blowing off the final blasts of summer steam. I ask for some quiet. Nothing doing. As my 45th birthday prepares to bushwack me in a matter of three days, my long-simmering mid-life crisis, as in previous years, has me thinking about an escape. An Obama ad comes on the tube, "Change You Can Believe In." This gives me an idea. I love my family, don't get me wrong, but after a long summer "staycation," it's time to get away from these people. I need a change I can believe in.
