I must have eaten something a little dodgy last night because I was having these surreal dreams - something about China in the distant future, a lot of technology I couldn't understand, field arrays in blue light. Free-floating Mandarin characters outlined in blue.
The only part I remember in detail was in the present day - I was in a coffee shop with my ex-girlfriend Wendy, explaining Ben Bernanke's strategy for incenting the Chinese & Japanese governments to hold on to their US dollar reserves and dollar-denominated assets in order to keep the value of the greenback from sliding even further.
It seemed like a brilliant strategy as I was explaining it, but I can't remember the details now. Wendy just sipped her coffee, listening to me politely, but I could tell she was bored. I haven't seen her for ten years, I wonder why she popped up now?
And what the hell- Ben Bernanke? I think I need therapy.
