Just got this recommendation from Amazon:

The Street Corner Ching (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/098422582X/ref=pe_5050_14939710_snp_dp)

"The Street Corner Ching" presents the ancient Chinese source of wisdom, the "I Ching," in terms a modern westerner can easily understand. Now, with just three coins, paper and pen, and this book, you can draw on this fascinating and uncannily insightful divination tool to examine life, the universe and... pretty much everything! Author Randy Handley, a professional musician and songwriter, is also a long-time student of eastern spirituality. He worked with the "I Ching" for more than thirty years when he realized that he had translated and re-interpreted much of its wisdom and most of its essential fortune-telling aspects into "plain English." With the blessing of the ancient oracle, Handley shares his Street Corner Ching with you.

Hi Guys,

I am in a totally Great Mood today, just paid our family Federal Income Taxes through TurboTax which was a delight, fun and gave me a whole new appreciation for Pres. Obama and his tax credits and other benefits for the Middle Class.What a Country! What a Great President!

In this new Yi offering, I notice that the one thing the author didn't mention was being a parent. So his is apparently the view of the Yi Oracle by those single guys hanging out upon the street corner offering advice to passersby.

Reminds me I should work on my Junzi and Great Man comments for this part of the Forum...
