This blog has many elements and depending on your interests, may pique your imagination...or not. I urge you to be unreasonable. Reasonable people adapt themselves to the world. The unreasonable persist in trying to adapt the world to themselves, therefore all progress depends on unreasonable people. The more unreasonable you are, the more likely you are to enjoy this blog. All men dream, but not equally.
If you're a socialist or a Marxist, you'll find that I poke fun at your absurd notions of "good government" on a regular basis. So you might not wish to follow this blog because you'll be offended.
John Locke said, "One unerring mark of the love of truth is not entertaining any proposition with greater assurance than the proofs it is built upon will warrant." I like what Locke said. We can't theorize without adequate information because when we do we inevitably twist facts to suit theories rather than theories to suit facts. In this blog and in my life, I try to maintain this perspective.
Either you believe in our essential spark of shared divinity, or you succumb to our human insecurity. Either way your conscience lets you slice it, the main thing is to earnestly do what is right at the time.
Today, I balance work and play as much as anyone can. All things remaining equal, play is more important. Life is short - it's important to make every day count for something, if only to yourself.
I'm a former tinker/tailor/soldier/sailor who has now decided that maybe it really wasn't all done for nothing.

I've been busier than ever. And yet somehow, I still manage to find the

The good looks are obvious, which one do you sing like?
nice! very pretty cousin.
Brighid, I sing like a frog.
Jenny, yes, she is.
The singing frog of frog team 5, that's interesting! Did you ever do a Bud commercial?
Ribit.
(that means, "no")
("ribit" also means yes and it also means "please pass the buffalo chicken wings and ranch dressing"...)
The moral to this story is that you never really know what a frog is singing about.
funny you say that. you know, I had moments in those commercials when I was pretty sure they were singing about Shiner Bock, in code.
Am I the only one tempted to make a comment about beauty and the beast here?
Willie Nelson is just an old burned out hippie that can sing. He's not a beast...
Compared to your cousin, he's about as ugly a cuss as you can find. He is a talented, ugly cuss. I'll grant you that.
