Unfortunately, I'm an all the way kinda guy.

There are few problems in life that cannot be solved with toast.
One of them, however, is opening a can of corned beef with that stupid key. This cannot easily be done at the best of times, and toast is of surprisingly little use in resolving the issue.

We are the hollow men
We are the stuffed men
Leaning together
Headpiece filled with straw. Alas!
Our dried voices, when
We whisper together
Are quiet and meaningless
As wind in dry grass
Or rats' feet over broken glass
In our dry cellar
---Update---
Those who have crossed
With direct eyes, to death's other Kingdom
Remember us—if at all—not as lost
Violent souls, but only
As the hollow men
The stuffed men.
---Update---
Is it like thisIn death's other kingdom
Waking alone
At the hour when we are
Trembling with tenderness
Lips that would kiss
Form prayers to broken stone.

The late, great, Warren Zevon, with something to which we can all relate...
Good stuff........
me shits fucked up.
---Update---
RIP Warren.In interviews, Zevon described a lifelong phobia of doctors and said he seldom received medical assessment. Shortly before playing at the Edmonton Folk Music Festival in 2002, he started feeling dizzy and developed a chronic cough. After a period of suffering with pain and shortness of breath, Zevon was encouraged by his dentist to see a physician; he was diagnosed with inoperable peritoneal mesothelioma (a form of cancer associated with exposure to asbestos). Refusing treatments he believed might incapacitate him, Zevon instead began recording his final album, The Wind which includes guest appearances by close friends including Bruce Springsteen, Don Henley, Jackson Browne, Timothy B. Schmit, Joe Walsh, David Lindley, Billy Bob Thornton, Emmylou Harris, Tom Petty, Dwight Yoakam, and others. It has been said that the decision to include "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" was his, much to the dismay of the others in the project. At the request of the music television channel VH1, documentarian Nick Read was given access to the sessions; his cameras documented a man who retained his mordant sense of humor, even as his health was deteriorating over time.

This is the way the world ends

Not with a bang but a whimper.
So last night on the BTS a lady, easily in her 30's stands in front of me, listening to something on her smartphone and happily tapping away at the screen.
Playing Tetris.
Please tell me she wasn't listening to the beeps on her earphones.

My, how America has changed in my lifetime from this....
to, "ask how much free healthcare you can get from your country".
'Ask what not your country can do for you, but ask what you can do for your country'
We need such emotions again.
But maybe not in this world and lifetime Chang.
people have become cynical....
quite understandably...
it's a dog eat dog world......................

Churchill: "And if you were my wife, I would drink it".
Lady Astor: “Winston, you are drunk"
Churchill: “Indeed, Madam, and you are ugly but tomorrow I’ll be sober.”
