♫♪ There's nothing for me, in this world full of strangers, ♪♫
It's all someone else's idea.
Tom Waits

The voiced ignorance of a
Thousand men holds less truth
Than the voiced wisdom of
One man.
One needs only to examine the
French and Iranian revolutions
To discover they devoured
Their own children.
The voice of the people
Is not always the
Voice of God.
(So much for political mandates.)
I was thinking that if the left is more likely to be ok with abortion than the right and the right seems to be more ok with the death penalty than the left, maybe the left would be ok with the dealth penalty if we have the mother's consent.

I screamed, yelled, and raised hell until I had everybody's attention and then the strangest thing happened... I realized I didn't have anything to say.

My First Blog

I don't know what makes me think anyone is interested in reading what I have to say so my first attempt at blogging might take a bit to get off the ground. From time to time I'll post some poetry here and will count on your comments to help me get this thing started. My interests range from the natural sciences, world and Texas history, to such things as good music & intelligent conversation with family & friends. Some of the things that I'll post here will be sure to raise some eye brows and probably even piss some people off. But I don't care if I piss 'em off or not. This is my site and my castle so I say, "Let them eat cake." I haven't talked to very many people around here that said they voted for Obama but someone voted for him because I hear he's set to occupy the Oval Office in January. Remember the Alamo...
