Boomer Musings: Amuse yourselves

Words to live by...

"How beautiful it is to do nothing, and to rest afterward."

[Spanish Proverb]

Ius luxuriae publice datum est

(The right to looseness has been officially given)

"Everyone carries a part of society on his shoulders," wrote Ludwig von Mises, "no one is relieved of his share of responsibility by others. And no one can find a safe way for himself if society is sweeping towards destruction. Therefore everyone, in his own interest, must thrust himself vigorously into the intellectual battle."

Apparently, the crossword puzzle that disappeared from the blog, came back.

Inspector Clouseau said...: Wow, that's really neat Douglas.

By the way, when I first saw the title of today's post, I instantly thought to myself that you probably have the most eclectic blog on net, and that made me look in Webster's for the definition of "musings." Interesting stuff every day. You definitely make me think.

You stimulate thought in a different manner than we try to do. Interesting.; December 28, 2008 at 11:42 AM

Vikki North said...: That's so much fun Douglas! But why did I have so many left over pieces after I put the picture together? (Just kidding)

It's a really cool little gadget.

Douglas said...: Neo - Nah...Just felt like it.

Log - I have to keep the cobwebs from collecting in the corners of my brain. Thanks for the compliment.

Vikki - It's more fun when it's timed.

Yolanda - Thanks, it is fun.; December 28, 2008 at 10:25 PM

Robot Nine said...: Thanjs Douglas, I was trying to get to bed! I actually did have one piece left over, I think I somehow left it under the image and cannot see it or retrieve it. Leave it to me...

Robot Nine said...: Opps, not left over, missing a piece i mean. Alan; December 29, 2008 at 11:50 PM
Michael said...: I've been doing puzzles since I was 2. I was not amused by this one for some reason. I have no idea why. Makes me feel a little sad.

Douglas said...: Michael - Why do I suspect those puzzles were not the simple 4-6 piece ones? And how could a puzzle that results in a color balloon in flight, free and unfettered, make you sad? Oh, wait, you are still a teenager. Maybe I do understand if I recall that context.; December 31, 2008 at 8:26 AM
