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.
-Steven Weinberg

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.
-Bertrand Russell

Too much sanity may be madness and the maddest of all, to see life as it is and not as it should be.
-Miguel de Cervantes

I enjoy paying taxes. With them I buy civilization.

It is a puzzlement

Yesterday I saw Aubrey for the first time in a long time. He is hard to make plans with so I just called him up in the morning and before I could ask if he was free his wife invited me over. We spent most of the time doing some puzzles that he bought. I did one in a couple of minutes. One I'm not really interested in. The third I took home with me to work on. I'm frustrated with it since I'm pretty sure I solved it very quickly when I was a kid.

Have I mentioned that I'm a puzzle maven? I think it started the first time I was in the hospital with Crohn's disease when I was 12, it might have been before then. I got a few as gifts and solved them. I also love many logic problems and verbal puzzles. There are some that are popular that I don’t at all though. I like ones you have to think about and make progress on till you get the AHA!. Not ones that you just have to see how to do.

I also spent a lot of time in Aubrey's massage chair. Anyone want to get me one? It isn't perfect but I really didn't want to get up from it. The calf massage was the best.

What I didn’t do yesterday was laundry. School starts tomorrow so I better get it done today. I also have to prepare my lessons. I'm teaching new classes this semester. I have no idea what material I'm covering tomorrow. I'm pretty sure I'll be doing some fun trig in Tech Math II.

Usually at this point of the entry I either write something philosophical or say that I decided against writing what I was thinking about. Right now I'm not thinking about anything. I don't think I like that. Lets see if I'm more inspired tomorrow.
