LL said...: I'm a lean, mean fighting machine...in addition to being a super genius and sexual tyrannosaurus.; October 17, 2013 at 8:02 AM
darlin said...: LL ... love your response to Opus! ;-)

I say good for you, sometimes we just do what we want to do, not what we have to do, just cause we still can. I can totally relate here, Masters degree... ya what was I thinking? On that happy joyous note back to writing I shall go.

Have yourself a wonderful weekend!; October 17, 2013 at 8:21 AM
LL said...: I agree, Darlin', but sometimes I think that I'm in a pie eating contest where the more pie that I eat, the more they give me to eat.; October 17, 2013 at 6:40 PM
Race Bannon said...: ...if you could just put on a loin cloth or something while pushing the stone. A commute never bothered me, I learned Spanish (on tape) that way. I was always early to work, to miss the traffic. Now that I live 2 miles from the office, I'm late all the time...and I will never commute again.; October 18, 2013 at 4:05 AM
LL said...: I said that I'd never commute again. Famous last words.; October 20, 2013 at 5:13 PM

Welcome to the Machine!

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.

This is My Journey.
