time



Did Fiat again today.  This is the start of the seventh year of international Fiat work.
today i had a new tag to a spot i did this summer for the UK
they wanted it in seven  seconds.  Things are timed to tenths of a second.
i read the tag in seven seconds. 

then they told me to do it in eight, and i did.

then they checked their time with the video,
then they said the needed 7.5 seconds.
i don't have a clock in the booth.

i read it three times in a row at 7.5
we wrapped the work in ten minutes.

i told my wife tonight that i felt lucky.
she said why, and i told her.  7.5 seconds three times in a row?
that's what i did forty years ago in L.A. and then San Francisco.
reading well is one thing, to read it to the tenth of a second
is uncommon.
i feel lucky the strange ability is still with me.
