Everybody sucks (except you of course)

The geese have nothing to do with anything, just put those there because I took a picture of them and I'll be damned if it was in vain. Work is the same as ever, I like the lake. My bosses Mike and Al, are chill guys that make me laugh. Yesterday I spent 20 minutes watching a black widow stalk a small brown spider I put in her jar. It was seriously the most entertaining thing I saw that day. Sad, but true. In addition to the spider action, I went camping last weekend. Perfect spot. Too bad the water wasn't warm enough for swimming.

The real subject of my blog is that nobody seems to be in the swing of things anymore. I wait, but nothing from simsisms. Politic chic is dead and buried. Smithfieldman still goes on, but I doubt he reads mine anymore. Thre you have it. So I will go to Peru, and I plan on not updating this blog until 7 different people post. If you wish to hear nothing more, I make this easy for you: do nothing. Otherwise, let me know there is still a reason to keep this sucker alive.

5 Good quotes

"Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserves neither liberty nor safety."

-Benjamin Franklin, 1759
(that one is for politic chic)

"There is no conflict between liberty and safety. We will have both or niether."
-Ramsey Clark
(I don't even know if this guy believes that but it's a good quote anyway)

"I hold it to be the inalianable right of anybody to go to hell in his own way."
-Robert Frost, 1935

"I place economy among the first and important virtues, and the public debt as the greatest of dangers. To preserve our independence, we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual dept. We must make our choice between economy and libery, or profusion and servitude. If we can prevent the govenment from wasting the labours of the people under the pretense of caring for them, ther will yet be happy.
-Thomas Jefferson

"I can picture in my mind a world without war, without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world because they'd never expect it."
-Jack Handey, Deep Thoughts




I liked these quotes and decided to put them up there for all to see. I sometimes feel that our greatest strengths as a country is becoming intertwined with a terrible pride that will drag us down more surely than other threat to the nation. Observing recent events and pondering on them all gives me a sad feeling and the nonchalance of the common man for things of eternal import is the root of it all. I have the same feeling reading the news as I do when I read the book of Ether or the the last parts of Alma or the book of Mormon in the Book of Mormon. One more quote that was quite prophetic:

"If we were directed from Washington when to sow and when to reap, we should all want bread."
Thomas Jefferson
