Through the course of writing Universal Coverage, I could hardly believe the many things I thought were fiction are actually becoming fact. When it comes to health care systems, choose wisely.

Something to think about.

A bit of wisdom…

…from my man, Benjamin Franklin, philosopher, scientist, founder of a nation:

If you would not be forgotten as soon as you are dead and rotten, either write something worth reading or do things worth the writing.

Those are words to live be.

Brisas del Mar no more

For many years, Brisas del Mar restaurant served diners in Savaneta, Aruba, DWI. It went through various owners, quality levels, and styles. Last year, a small storm managed to do some major damage to the waterfront building housing the restaurant. The owners decided not to reopen. Now the building is being demolished to make way for some waterfront villas. Here’s a photo of what remains of the old building.

brisasaKind of sad to see it in this condition. However, just to the right of this photo, you’ll find a billboard announcing the new villas. Here’s a look at that.

Bon dia from Aruba.
