back history;
When I came back from BC early 2003.
After a legal battle for my daughter and a couple scary months in the hospital with her...
My uncle helped us out immeasurably.
When I got back on my feet
I was going to repay him for a lone
I needed to get started.
He said I didn't have to and that "it was a life investment..."

Posted: 5/26/2006 9:20:29 PM | Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge: it is those who know little, and not those who know much, who so positively assert that this or that problem will never be solved by science.
Charles Darwin
Introduction, The Descent of Man (1871)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nations are in a measure represented by the states which they have formed; these states, by the governments which administer them. The individual in any given nation has in this war a terrible opportunity to convince himself of what would occasionally strike him in peacetime – that the state has forbidden to the individual the practice of wrong-doing, not because it desired to abolish it, but because it desires to monopolize it, like salt and tobacco. The warring state permits itself every such misdeed, every such act of violence, as would disgrace the individual man. It practices not only the accepted stratagems, but also deliberate lying and deception against the enemy; and this, too, in a measure which appears to surpass the usage of former wars. The state exacts the utmost degree of obedience and sacrifice from its citizens, but at the same time treats them as children by maintaining an excess of secrecy, and a censorship of news and expressions of opinion that renders the spirits of those thus intellectually oppressed defenseless against every unfavorable turn of events and every sinister rumour. It absolves itself from the guarantees and contracts it had formed with other states, and makes unabashed confession of its rapacity and lust for power, which the private individual is then called upon to sanction in the name of patriotism.
From “Thoughts for the Times on War and Death”
(first published in 1915) by Sigmund Freud
------------------------------------------------------------
He who has Science and has Art,
Religion, too, has he;
Who has not Science, has not Art,
Let him religious be!
Goethe

Posted: 6/21/2006 1:47:19 AM | Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get — only what you are expecting to give — which is everything. What you will receive in return varies. But it really has no connection with what you give. You give because you love and cannot help giving.

Posted: 6/21/2006 10:35:17 PM | well I guess this is my favorite quote "A closed mind is a wonderful thing to lose"
I made a quote of my own and used that in mine not knowing who's quote it was.
So I googled, after searching I have no clue, I believe there is a Feminism book titled that and its a on about 50 bumpersticker web sites but regarldless its meaning is expressed further by me >>>>
"The power of the universe will never cease to amaze me,each day I feel more in tune with it and believe this progression feeds my intuition. Although instead of burning of this energy that is received from the feeding frenzy, it actually intensfies and aligns my energy in a balance that can almost be explained as a perpetual motion machine. Never slowing but always growing and moving faster, all on its on volition. Who ever said, (sub quote) "A closed mind is a wonderful thing to lose"(end sub quote) was certainly running on the perpetual motion train."
