A guy from Seattle tries to tell the rest of the country how to shape up and do things right
--Benjamin Britten
--Tolstoy
--Bertrand Russell
I never lose sight of the fact that just being is fun. --Katharine Hepburn
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.
--Frank Herbert, Dune

Merry Christmas to my thousands of readers. I'm heading south by Amtrak tomorrow, spending Christmas week with relatives in Sonoma. May your holidays be happy, and every bit as warm as the WPIX-TV Yule log!
