Renaming of the site

I have renamed my blog ¨a stand-by way of life.¨  I thought of this when I was waiting in the airport in Atlanta to come to Buenos Aires. 

As a stand-by traveller, one enjoys the POSSIBILITY of a first class seat assignment along with the POSSIBILITY of no seat assignment at all.  It´s a whirlwind of emotion, and I believe my non-revenue status has taught me a great deal about how I look at the world. 

I have the tendency to be content to sit back and wait.  Patient people either come off as lazy or wise.  I´m one of those people.  I choose to wait for big things to happen in my life, while at the same time arranging everything down to the last detail.  This is what I mean by ¨standing by.¨
