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.

More fun than the Watergate hearings


Tonight we will be treated to what I think may be the most entertaining 90 minutes on TV in many years. I am, of course, talking about the debate between Congressman and GOP VP nominee Paul Ryan and the incumbent Vice President Joe Biden.

Why do I think it will be so entertaining? Because of Joe Biden. Our current Vice President does not appear to think well on his feet. Possibly, he does not think well when sitting down either. I don't know.  I do know that the potential for almost unbelievable gaffes is highest when Biden is speaking and especially when he is speaking without a prompter.

Or maybe I'll watch the football game.

It's a tough choice.
