This is a thinly discussed banking story.  For those of you who do not know me, I have been a banker for 33 years.  I did have a snowboard deal once, and there was a fire but other than that, the story is entirely fictional.   And yes it's true, entrepreneurs are exciting and interesting people but scare the crap out of the average banker.


This story is from an early period of my writing career and I was still mining the depth of my own personal experiences for story ideas.  Later on, I started the mine the depth of other peoples' lives but that's another story.  But it is interesting to see how our perceptions about global warming have changed over the past decade.

I am a poker player so the story is very poker heavily.  I worry that the poker passages may be undecipherable to those who do not play the game.   Please let me know.  I framed the story between bookends of a poker game.  I think the technique is a little cheezie but it allowed me to tell the reader what subsequently happened to Larry Glick.  It may be cheezie but it was also easy.  Again, I would like your opinion.  And yes, I know, like all my other stories, it ends too quickly.
