Omaha? Oh No maha!
Right so apparently a lot of important people who like to count money (which I admit I do enjoy counting my pennies to buy beans) are usually going to some place called Omaha. It's got something to do with a Mr. Buffett who seems to be a very important fellow like Teddy is important to me. Usually these money counters come from all over like when I tried to invite everyone over for Christmas but this year fewer are showing up. Why? Well that's a bit like when Mrs. Wicket said I could not use the elevator!
The Trouble with Travel (and Customs!)
Seems this year some folks from China and Indonesia are staying put. They're worried about… well things. You know like when I accidentally packed fireworks in my suitcase and tried to explain it to the airport security? It's all a bit of a pickle like trying to eat spaghetti with only one chopstick. One fellow even said he's worried about 'unnecessary and unfounded issues with customs.' Sounds like someone needs a good old fashioned distraction maybe a bit of my underpants on the head trick?
Trumpet Blown Trade War Shown
Apparently this Mr. Trump (not to be confused with Mr. Truman who I am also unfamiliar with) started a get this 'trade war.' Sounds a bit like when I tried to sell things at the car boot sale and ended up buying more than I sold. It's all gotten a bit… complicated. China even issued a warning for its tourists going to America. Goodness me. Why go to America when you can explore the drains of your neighbourhood?
Buffett's Growing Pains (and International Gains)
Apparently this Mr. Buffett chap noticed more and more foreigners showing up at his party. He even had special meet and greets a bit like when I try to be fancy with a tea party for Teddy (it usually ends with tea everywhere). But then there were too many people! It was like trying to fit all my shopping into my Mini after visiting Harrods Impossible! But I'll say this Mr. Bean never gives up! If you can't fit more people then you fit more chairs!
Signing Off (Literally!)
Mr. Buffett used to sign autographs for everyone but it took him hours! It's a bit like when I tried to sign up for that marathon. So many forms! He eventually stopped because he simply did not have the time to sit and sign things. I am not too sure about this fellow Charlie but he also decided not to do the signing too.
The Show Must Go On (But Maybe Online!)
Still the show must go on! You can even watch it online in English and something called Mandarin. It is all a bit fascinating. Maybe I can watch it with Teddy and figure out what all these money counters are going on about. After all I'm sure I can learn a thing or two about buying more beans. Now if you'll excuse me I have a date with a toothbrush and some paint.

I bet Buffett would enjoy a sandwich with a newspaper hat!
