    Some people have hopes & dreams, I've got ways and means
    I've never really understood being "goal oriented" or "working towards your dreams". I don't really have hopes and dreams that aren't met, or none that could really be met by working on it.
    I have for the most part always loved or at least really liked my jobs, I love who I am and almost all aspects of my personality and never ever look at someone else and wish I could be them, the least I've ever made has been $75k (and then only for 6 months at a state that didn't have income tax) so while we could all use millions & making more is always nice, it's not really a "dream of mine to strive for" and I've been pretty happy with my income, and haven't really had something I wanted that I couldn't have unless I worked harder to get it.
    My day dreams, in the rare times that I have them, for the most part relate to being superman or something along those lines, not an objective. I think this is because of both having had everything I wanted, and not having wanted much that I didn't have or could afford. I mean a yacht or a palace would be nice, but I don't particularly desire either to give them much of a second thought. And I certainly never dream or think about power...
    All together, I think that makes me a very lucky guy!

    I am so lucky! I honestly can't belive it's not butter!
    .
    It's been a long road, geting from there to here.

    It's been a long time, but my time is finally here.

    I will see my dreams come alive at last, I will touch the sky.

    Cause I've got faith of the heart, I'm going where my heart will take me.

    I've got faith to believe, I can do anything.

    I've got strength of the soul, no one's going to bend nor break me.

    I can reach any star.

    Cleaned up a bit
    Deleted a bunch of users who had either not been on for years or I did not recognize their username. If we are friends and you are on and I removed you by mistake, my apologize, drop me a note so I can add you back :)

    Most marry their parent.
    This has been proven (and is surprising how early in child development the imprints happen) and is obvious in most day to day lives (though most people try to deny it) but is a good topic that usually shows up near Valentine's day. This particular article is more social and psychological than biological which is what I'm used to seeing due to all the researchers I hang out with but has the same message:

    Cocaine's a hell of a drug
    "I feel a sense of obligation to my successor to make sure there is a not a huge economic crisis. [short pause] Look, we're in a crisis now. We're in a huge recession, but I don't want to make it even worse." --Bush

    "I'm mindful of not putting good money after bad, so we're working through some options," ... "What you don't want to do is spend a lot of taxpayers' money and then have the same old stuff happen again, and again and again." --Bush

    "See, I never just did things just to do them. Come on, what am I gonna do? Just all of a sudden jump up and grind my feet on somebody's couch like it's something to do? Come on. I had a little more sense than that. [short pause] Yeah, I remember grinding my feet on Eddie's couch. [long pause] Cocaine's a hell of a drug" -- Rick James about

    Love Biden's comment about the "share the wealth" thing people are so easily manipulated with. If tax breaks are "sharing the wealth, how come "sharing the wealth" with the wealthiest and richest is OK but sharing the wealth with the middle class is socialist?? And if tax breaks are not sharing the wealth, then this whole thing about calling Obama/Biden sharing the wealth thing is utter crap.

    One says give the richest a tax cut & more money and stop spending money on everything else tax dollars go for (other than the war), one says tax the richest SLIGHTLY more, so we can have enough money to continue to function rather than grow the deficit. It would be nice not to tax anyone, but then the government would have no money, there would be no highways, no parks, no cops, no armies, no research, no benefits of any kind. Someone has to pay for it or we'll have to borrow it from China. How is saying the middle and lower class are paying enough taxes, tax the wealthiest slightly more sharing the wealth? Neither side is talking about changing 98% of the people's taxes. Republicans want to give relief and increasing the deficit to the top 2%, democrats want to charge that last 2% more taxes so SOMEONE, those who are FILTHY rich, can pay for the cost of our wars and our way of life rather than keep borrowing.

    There is a government, there are costs to it running, for it to keep the country running, for it to defend us, for it think and function as the central brain and brawn of our collective. If you feel you want no part of it, then you deserve nothing it provides you either. You are out of luck though, no where on Earth are people dumb enough to live without a governemnt. With government comes taxes for the services it provides. Someone has to pay for it. I'd rather the it be the people who won't miss it. If you rather it be you, vote Repbulican and continue to pay with every aspect of your life style & the economy.

    Don't be so simple minded people. Don't fall for sound-bites meant to poke at simple minded people's fears.

    Time is the fire in which we burn
    Life continues to be full of beauty, beautiful friends and fantastic days. Aaah it's been so great.

    I am truly blessed and very lucky. But I also would like to think I have something to do with it. Surround yourself with good people, good karma, do onto others as you want done to you and...

    No time for people & situations that suck. Life is too short :)

    Don't forget to enjoy today and not wait for tomorrow or until this or that has changed.

    Father's day
    Feeling much better now. I was pretty down for a couple of days. I called his number on Sunday, and left a voicemail. It really sucked.

    Then I tried to think about what an amazing dad, judge and person he was and how he has influenced and shaped who I am in every way. It is still so weird not to have him there. He was such a rock, ready to give up anything, everything, his left arm or his life for my needs. Most parents might be willing to die for their kid, but to know and be constantly reminded that you mean so much to someone that their entire being revolves around you is a pretty powerful stuff. And then to have that person be respected by two entire cities of millions, well no wonder I am so confident. I really do owe him everything. My honesty, morals, caring, sweetness, lovingness, selflessness for those I love, strength, passion for life and everything in it, being open minded, having seen much of the world, being sure of myself, my success, IQ, reasoning, loyalty, humility (though clearly some of that has been eroded while away from him), fairness and appreciation for all that is good and just.

    Thank you farther. For everything. I love you so much. It breaks my heart that you are not alive any more. Rest in peace.

    So perish all would true love part, that love may still be lord of all.



    Blithely they saw the rising sun when he shone fair on Carlisle wall;
    But they were sad ere day was done, though love was still the lord of all.
    Now all ye lovers that faithful prove, pray for their souls who died for love,
    For Love shall still be lord of all. --Sir Walter Scott
