    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.

    I've given up trying to figure out whether the glass is half full or half empty.

    Just get a smaller glass if it bothers you.

    And in the way of a counterweight (lest we forget the counterweight)

    I am the Walrus.............

    Mistah Kurtz—he dead.

    A penny for the Old Guy

    I
    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 this
    In death's other kingdom
    Waking alone
    At the hour when we are
    Trembling with tenderness
    Lips that would kiss
    Form prayers to broken stone.

    ---Update---

    Life is very long..................

    The late, great, Warren Zevon, with something to which we can all relate...

    Good stuff........

    me shits fucked up.

    ---Update---

    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.
    RIP Warren.

    For Thine is the Kingdom

    For Thine is

    This is the way the world ends

    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.

    '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......................

    I'm not going to google it but did Kennedy write those worlds?........

    staying with the theme...

    It's a good self-defence mechanism. People are much less likely to approach someone who is listening to, or appears to be talking to, someone else.

    Share this information with someone you love.
