I don't have much to say today, but for some reason feel the need to update this page.

We never should have gone to war in Iraq, am I saying something that is obvious, preaching to the converted. I don't care...

The worst part is that some poor ignorant sons and daughters of bitches will take the current turns of events over there as some kind of opportunity to justify what has been done.

Like succeeding at something wrong is somehow a justification for doing it in the first place.

It's the same kind of thinking and rationalization that created the cult of the anti-hero...now there's a concept:

Make hero's of people who do bad or anti social things because they look so cool when they act like that...nothing succeeds like success...so Michael Milken should be a hero because he successfully robbed a million people...I'd have traded a couple of years in minimum security for 3 or 4 billion 1980 something dollars...

So this is starting to sound bitter...so screw it, let's end this small tirade and start again tomorrow. One thing that staying alive for a few extra years has let me understand is that you can always start over again, it is never too late while there is life and if you have hope...

I do.

Good luck is the coincidence of opportunity and preparedness...

I’m not sure where exactly to begin, so I’ll start in the middle and work my way out, top, bottom, left and right and to all points of the compass rose.

More to come...
