The cats may have cleaned it up, Hipparchia.

It has been my unfortunate experience, Michael, and reality and thought are the most avoided things in this country.

You put up with months of this stuff, Аня, I can understand why some people in New Hampshire might not be 100% truthful with pollsters, and why they might have their numbers unlisted every four years.

I got one of those push-poll calls on one of my ornery days. The guy wouldn’t cease or desist, so my reply to his question of which Republican candidate was I going to vote for in the primary was “None of them, you idiot. I’m a damned Democrat!” [click!]

(I do try not to slam the phone down — the handset is old and brittle…)

We can address degrees of freedom and limitation, however, and encourage the exercise of that free will which everyone has within their present bounds to alter those bounds.

You cannot tell people they are slaves when they have been educated to believe they are free.

Willful ignorance is probably one of the few things that humans can call their own when compared to their “lesser cousins” in the animal kingdom, Badtux, although some breeds of dogs have been known to put up with this crap.

Most people refuse to admit they are slaves, Hipparchia, and others willingly serve their masters, helping to enslave even more people.

My Mother does that, and it’s so hard to get the stains out of the carpets.

because there are enough people now in the slave class who think that one day they'll make it out into the overlord class. in which case, they'd hate it if all the other slaves got out too.

So why can we all see this, but nobody else seems able to do so? Curious penguins want to know!

And that’s why we never seem to fix the system and make it fair for all concerned – the employers want slave labor.
