With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.
The good life, as I conceive it, is a happy life. I do not mean that if you are good you will be happy - I mean that if you are happy you will be good.
Too much sanity may be madness and the maddest of all, to see life as it is and not as it should be.
I enjoy paying taxes. With them I buy civilization.

First the health report. When I awoke this morning I was all better.
As I was back to normal I couldn't use being sick as an excuse so I simply procrastinated as always. I joke about it but it really bothers me. I did manage to get a lot of cleaning done and I did prepare my famous French toast bread pudding for tomorrow. I need to do more cleaning tomorrow and maybe a bit of shopping. I have to see how I'm doing on paper plates and such.
I managed to get the bedrooms that my overnight guests, LORi, Steve, their son Andrew, and Paul will be sleeping in. I even remembered to wash the sheets.
Tomorrow I have to vacuum, put a few things away and set up my living room for the house concert. Right now I have 23 people coming. I think that is four more than I had for Jim Infantino, my previous record. I should be able to fit them in. I hope I can do so without moving the coffee table. Three more people might actually show up. If the do I'll squeeze them in. They are people that I really want to be there.
I really don't have that much to do tomorrow. I have to vacuum and prepare my proscuitto-provolone rolls. Yes that is exactly what I made my last house concert. I am being culinary adventurous in with the French toast bread pudding. I made one of the loaves with chocolate chips. I never tried that before and just followed my own idea on how to add them. OK how well do you know me? If it works what will I try next time? I'll give the answer next entry.
I even procrastinated about writing this entry. At midnight I grabbed myself a snack and turned on the TV. That was the mistake. Three Days of the Condor was on. I thought I had seen the film but I hadn't. After five minutes I was totally hooked and couldn't turn it off. That is the mark of a great film.
I have to get to bed so I'll wrap this up with another round of "What's playing on my CD changer?"
