Some hot wheels cars for the cub.
You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

Groceries for tonites supper.  Turkey oven sandwiches and fresh corn on the cob.

A Tshirt imprinted with books in a tree and the saying "Reading can seriously damage your ignorance."

Well, we do have a lot of people on the internet that can read, but, only what suits their level of ignorance.

Agreed, but, would it make any difference?

Brad Thor's new release and I liked it, but I kind of wasted it.

Finished it a day and a half.  :bigcry:
Jimi Hendrix: When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. 

Ghandi: Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

I want to say yes.

Dead Can Dance tickets. I will have to drive to Chicago and back, but I have gone MUCH farther for a concert. It's not far from Indy.

Last time I was going to see DCD, it was canceled due to some accident.  That was many years after I worked with them in Atlanta.

This will be the first live music event in over two years for me. Now, that's too long!
