The Honor of Your Presence

Q: Why did the poor dog chase his tail?

Please join me for half an hour of bitter whining if you live anywhere in the US or Mexico. From Canada is also not too far to travel (consult your travel agent for more information.) I don't recommend coming from Europe, Antarctica, Asia, etc. You'll be disappointed. South America, say, would be on the fence; depends how much you love half an hour of bitter whining. Mongolia: too far. Greenland: come. Algeria: too far. Cuba: come. Costa Rica, even: come. New Zealand: stay home; do something else.

Just another storied story: about science getting thrown under the bus for sports, smart girls getting pregnant and going stupid, the most beautiful human beings grappling with losspurposemistakeslovebabiesaddiction. Those stories -- their telling never gets old to us. But post-oil society and Malthusian traps? Shut yours and give me the Olympics! We don't wants to hear about it.

Here's some personal short term goals:

1. Continue on steadfastly with plan to live forever. So far, no major obstacles.
2. Invent something that will suppress regret and call it Advanced Tequila 3000
3. Make an A in C++
4. Not be so crazy (this is also a long term goal)

A: Because he was just trying to make ends meet.
