"...it's not the training to be mean but the training to be kind that is used to keep us leashed best." ~ Black Dog Red

"In case you haven't recognized the trend: it proceeds action, dissent, speech." ~ davidly, on how wars get done

"...What sort of meager, unerotic existence must a man live to find himself moved to such ecstatic heights by the mundane sniping of a congressional budget fight. The fate of human existence does not hang in the balance. The gods are not arrayed on either side. Poseiden, earth-shaker, has regrettably set his sights on the poor fishermen of northern Japan and not on Washington, D.C. where his ire might do some good--I can think of no better spot for a little wetland reclamation project, if you know what I mean. The fight is neither revolution nor apocalypse; it is hardly even a fight. A lot of apparatchiks are moving a lot of phony numbers with more zeros than a century of soccer scores around, weaving a brittle chrysalis around a gross worm that, some time hence, will emerge, untransformed, still a worm." ~ IOZ

Reason for honoring the most excellent woman who loves me, # 457,395

My superior to me in all ways wife, to a co-worker expressing surprise that we don't use social networking to interact with one another: "We sleep in the same bed. Why would I send him a friend request?"

Coworker: "That's wrong."

The most excellent woman who blesses me with her presence: "Really? We fuck each other. We don't need to send each other friend requests, on Facebook."

Unreal gods and uncaring fates, I adore this woman.
