i am thinking about doing something that i have wanted to do for about 5 years and i think now is the time. i want a garden. like a real one.

the past few years have been tough because of so much traveling for work but this summer i should be in chicago most of the time.

i can grow carrots and can them.

i can grow basil and make pesto and freeze it.

i can grow corn and just eat it straight off the stalk.

time to plan

But my mama never warned me about my own

“

Yeah, I’m pretty much over basic human decency being dismissed because, “You guys, the law dictates…” like we’re a bunch of naive and silly little idiots. Guess what? The law is not some unchangeable force of nature we just have to reckon with. It was created by human beings. Therefore, it can (and should!) be reformed by human beings. This is true of pretty much every institution, as they were all created by (say it with me now) FALLIBLE. HUMAN. BEINGS. That means we have control over how the world operates!

So! “That’s just the way the world works” is not a useful explanation for much of anything. It is, at best, laziness and a desire to pass the buck. At worst, it is what you say to people to get them off your back when you want to continue enjoying privileges that others do not without feeling any guilt.

this morning i read a couple of articles about journalists that got through security at the airport without an id. . well i think i can do one better. . last week i went through security- and i do not go through the metal detector because of my pacemaker- but instead get patted down by an officer. well last week on one flight i forgot to take my phone out of my back pants pocket and he did not notice it. .. on another flight last week i had my ipod and phone in my suit jacket pocket and again the officer did not notice them. .. i mean these are not small things. . .

Imagine how happy you must feel if you’re an insurance executive watching premiums rise for decades at three times the rate of everything else knowing that in less than a decade your product will only be affordable to the wealthy and, now, the government has mandated that all citizens purchase your product.

Epic win.
