hmmm me, the eternal question, Cogito ergo Sum.
I'm just a guy, who's nothing special. I'm a collection of contradictions but don't confuse good manners, with agreement (I'm rarely agreeable). I'm a theorist, in search of a conspiracy. I'm a bundle of joy and, well, vinegar. I'm erudite, and opinionated. I'm not Politically Correct. But, also witty and charming. I'm a bit like QuickSilver. Go figure. Your mileage may vary.
I am a Patriot, and my hero is G. Washington. I believe that all our rights, are a derivative, of our FIRST right, the right to life. Because, we are endowed by our Creator. Now this is what I am not... I am not a savior. I'm not here to save you, from your past, or even your future. I'm here to have intelligent chat. I Probably don't care enough about anything to gossip. Like a great lyric says "Don't confront me with my failures, I have not forgotten them (or you)."
I don't believe that we can "Immanentize the Escaton"
Full days as defined by Jimmy V. The Jersey Shore. Jazz. Philosophy. Tilting at windmills. Moot Points. Hopeless causes. Shopping. I guess if pressed, women. But they are proving to be a futile endeavor. Are they an attraction, or a distraction. Happiness and Love, are but mere choices. Cooking, music, books, ideals, gardening, Being Catholic and a Boy Scout. College Hoops and Yankees Baseball. Debating, just for the sheer mental exercise and acuity. If you aren't up for the challenge, that's ok. save us both the time and aggravation. Using the dullest fool as the whetstone for the wit.
Favorite Things... Salt water drying on my skin. Silk. Cashmere. Lasagna. Red Wine. Full "D" or better cups. Hymns to the Silence, and a Full Force Gale. One can never have enough Garlic, Enough Grace, or enough shoes.
