The Random Comic Strip

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.

Life Goes On


I have no idea why, it just does. I am having great difficulty typing this. What is wrong with me, I have no freaking idea but, whatever it is, it is devastating. I made 5 typos just typing that sentence. Maybe the MRI will reveal something... I hope so anyway... but I won't find out until a week from Tuesday.
Today is Memorial Day.
Thank a vet... better yet, thank the family of a vet who didn't come back.
Meanwhile, life sucks.

I read your last two posts. You said not to worry about climate change because we will destroy the economy first. I think that climate change will destroy the world, maybe by 2300, but before that we will have all killed each other because of overpopulation. I am pleased I am a senior and feel bad for the world we are leaving to our grandchildren.

I hope you will feel better soon. I think most people don’t care about Memorial Day – it is just a day off to eat barbecue and go shopping. My father was badly hurt in WWII and my husband is a vet as well. We should all pause and remember the vets, especially those who gave their lives.

Vagabonde, you are correct that few care about Memorial Day. Thank your father for me (if he is still alive) because I do care about it and thank your husband for his service too. And thank you for wishing me well.
