Rene Descartes was a drunken fart





"Good Sense is, of all things among men, the most equally distributed; for every one thinks himself so abundantly provided with it, that those even who are the most difficult to satisfy in everything else, do not usually desire a larger measure of this quality than they already possess.""



At my work, and with ex-coworkers who are now friends, we have a constant war going. Mac vs. PC. We bait each other all the time, the e-mail threads grow into the double digits, with fervent opinions and sarcastic remarks. But really, people are just jealous of my iPhone. Tonight, while eating dinner at the bar ( at Chili's, across from my hotel in San Diego ), by the way, when you go out to eat alone, where do you sit? I personally like sitting at the bar, people are friendly and there are always sports on TV, I discovered BOOKS on the iPhone. I mean, you pay 99 cents for the ENTIRE Pride & Prejudice!! (It is full of classic lines, gotta have it.). They also have Shakespeare, Thomas Payne's "Common Sense"...


I am a word junkie. Love reading, love poetry, love the structure of words & sentences. Entire books. In the palm of your hand. At your fingertips. Whenever you want them. Woah.


Polishing your silver is maybe a little Yoga like. Check out those ninja knives. They're sparkly. Tired, tired, tired. So much work. Uncertainty somehow brings out nesting tendencies. The "new" kitchen table now holds a teeny sewing corner. It's nice.




Quote: by the man in the title. Title: From Monty Python's lovely song about him.
