Make mine FREEDOM

Yeah, yeah, a lot of things might suck: snow and ice all over the back stairs and driveway, a March that seems up to this point to be a wretched extension of a shitty February, work, my poor record keeping that resulted in not keeping track of all my expenses during the year which resulted in a much lower than expected tax refund, a stupid allergy attack at one in the morning right before going to bed that is only marginally helped by bourbon and inhalers...well, like I said, a lot of things. A lot of things.

But listen up, here's the deal. If this blog is dedicated to anything, it's dedicated to the creation of a deeper understanding of what has made America the finest place in the world to live. Honest to God, folks--sometimes my sense of duty to humanity is the only thing that keeps me going.

So watch, learn, and be grateful:

This reminded me that I want to read "The Millionaire Next Door." My professor has referred to it many times.

Great stuff - especially the 'Ism' bit....

Cheers!

CP, I think I might go off clowns and focus on retro-commies for a while. I think it's healthier.

Ten, interesting. I never finished it...I was biased against it because one of the people who kept recommending it was one of the most shallow and ultimately scheming people I worked with. I've since broken down and read things like "Start Late, Finish Rich" so I may as well return to it.

Danny, thanks. I just loved the idea of a Stalinist operative in a zoot suit.
