It is an important and popular fact that things are not always what they seem. For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much - the wheel, New York, wars and so on - whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man - for precisely the same reasons. - Douglas Adams

i am beginning to learn that holidaze such as Thanksgiving and Christmas are over-rated. i would rather be joyous and thankful everyday... plus your apples and almond butter sound delicious!
i hope you are having nice quality time with Clifton and Michelle (and Harley and Lotus and Hamlet... can't remember the kitty's name) just seeing pics of your lovely cabin and the lake make me yearn for more good times there (with your little mermaid too)
Thanks for the disk. And the uber-cool waterproof lens to capture the girly good times with. And for just reveling & smiling at our on abouts. Hopefully the times come 'round again sooner than later. See you 'round the bend. Wishing light until then ;)
Hi! thanks for thinking about me...I actually spent labor day weekend working in Venezuela, setting up a both at a pediatrician's conference. I think any program should be honored to have you...english, philosophy, history, politics and religion come to mind but I get the feeling you'd go for something less predictable.

"The only dream worth having is to dream that you will live while you are alive, and die only when you are dead. To love, to be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and vulgar disparity of the life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget." - Arundhati Roy (weroy.org)
