My grandson, Griffin (8 1/2 months), applied for a job at In-N-Out Burgers today. It looks like they put him on as crew chief... the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
He may as well learn now the importance of a college education. That's what those jobs teach teens. They think, "Oh God, I'd better get an education or I'll be dealing with being yelled at by some pimply-faced manager the rest of my life!
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 Russian's hacked the election. They "hacked" into the Democratic
National Committee's computers. And they got...one guy's emails...

Awww, he gets cuter by the day! What an adorable little guy!
And let me guess, Griffin takes after Grampa... right? :-)
That pic could win a contest. What a cutie!
Gotta get an early start to pay off that national tax debt.
Yes, his Grandad reached great fame in the fast food industry.
Darlin - how did you guess that he takes after grandpa?
Opus - My daughter ought to send the photo to In-N-Out and see if they want to use it in their advertising.
Red - It's a really BIG national debt.
WoFat - While Grandpa never worked in fast food, grandpa did eat food fast. Does that count?
LL it wasn't a guess, all this education is making me a tad bit wiser!
No kidding, Darlin'.
Now that it gets dark early and gets light late in the great Northwest, you should have less time to frolic and more time to study...
LL I haven't "froliced" in so long, I darn near forgot the word existed! :-)
