The acquisition and distribution
of wisdom is the most noble goal of mankind.
So far, we've failed miserably.

I just thought I'd leave that up there for another day or two...

I'm in a very strange mood. I don't feel like writing about anything. It's getting on in the work-week for me, I guess I'm just tired. That seems to happen about every two weeks at this time...

I've had a pretty good reception of my September essay. No flames, yet. I guess all of the people who might have been offended quit reading my journal when I put up the atheist logo. I did hear from them then, though.

I got an interesting email from a reader. She stated that when she was learning bible verses in 1938, when she was two years old, two-year-old jewish kids were getting swung by their feet to smash their heads against trees... in front of their parents and siblings... in the name of god.

I have worked a lot on my rules. Making up rules for yourself is strange. If I get them finished I'll put them up today here. If you get a 404 or whatever the hell that number is, then I didn't get them done. Sorry. Live with it. I'm going to provide a permanent link to them in my Journal FAQ.

OK, so I've got these rules. I made them up for me to follow. Well, they're not really rules, they're guidelines. The problem is, I can very easily justify breaking other people's rules if I want to, and it will be much easier to break my own. But I won't do that. No, I won't. See, I can just Change my rules. Pretty simple, huh.

I'm really looking forward to seeing my boys in Texas. Leaving Thursday AM, get there Friday PM. Depending on JD's internet connection, I may get up an entry or two while I'm down there, but don't count on it...

Tomorrow.... I will be off for a week! To Texas! And before I go in to Medassist, I'm going fishing...

Thanx for being here!
