Thanksgiving

Originally, I’d planned a post whining about why I don’t like the Thanksgiving holiday.  Suffice it to say I try to avoid the ‘traditional’ feast.
I celebrate by having something non-traditional.  Like Italian food.  Today, we’re having spaghetti, with meat sauce, garlic toast and a salad.  And, my guest is making a cheesecake!
I do have much to be thankful for.  My sister, my family, and my friends.  Both in person and on the Internet.
The blogger community has been wonderful to me.  Thank you.  As Ian Fleming used to say, without whom, etcetera...

The Four Rules

1. ALL GUNS ARE ALWAYS LOADED.

2. NEVER POINT YOUR MUZZLE AT SOMETHING YOU ARE NOT WILLING TO DESTROY.

3. KEEP YOUR FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER UNTIL YOUR SIGHTS ARE ON THE TARGET AND YOU ARE READY TO SHOOT.

4. KNOW YOUR TARGET AND WHAT'S BEYOND.

FEAR

"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain." - Bene Gesserit, from Frank Herbert's Dune

Penn Jillette

“F**k Civility. Hyperbole, passion, and metaphor are beautiful parts of rhetoric. The marketplace of ideas cannot be toned down for the insane.” - Penn Jillette
