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.

I spent yesterday waiting for my car to be delivered to the dealer from their other lot. It was supposed to get there around Noon. I got a call around two that it wouldn't get there till 6:30 to 7:00. I got there at 7 and it didn't get there till 7:30. It looked pretty good and drove like a dream so I'm taking it. It's a red 1998 Honda Civic CX hatchback. It has 55,700 miles. It comes equipped with AC, automatic transmission, and a pioneer cassette system. A CD player would have been nice but I can't have everything. The salesman is picking me up at my house at 2:30 so I can take delivery of the car.
On the way home I stopped at a Baskin-Robbins I hadn't tried yet and got my triple layer shake. It still wasn't right though. They didn't have the Reese Cup ice cream so I substituted Peanut Butter and Chocolate. At least it had the Reese Cups on top.
I was thinking of seeing Piñataland yesterday at Galapagos last night. Marti was going to go to. First Marti called me to tell me she can't go. Then I got out of the dealers late so I decided not to go. I really want to see Marti. I haven't seen her in months. That always happens with her. We see each other a lot for a bit then not at all for a long time.
A friend of mine wrote a diary entry the other day that I thought I should write to her about. She was stressed and I wanted to give her my thoughts on the subject and console her. I had so much trouble writing the letter. I changed directions three times. I found I couldn't really say what I wanted to say. I hate that. I was thinking so many things simultaneously that I couldn't write it linearly. The letter might have been saved by the hugs at the end. Sometimes good intentions are enough.
News Flash: For the first time ever spell check didn't find one error in my entry! Give me a cookie.
