'Der Kopf ist rund damit das Denken die Richtung wechseln kann'

Our heads are round so that our thinking can change direction.

-Francis Picabia
(dadaist and surrealist)

For having lived long, I have experienced many instances of being obliged, by better information or fuller consideration, to change opinions, even on important subjects, which I once thought right but found to be otherwise.

-Benjamin Franklin
(pretty smart guy)

a confession

I have a little box that contains the ticket stubs from most of the movies I've seen in the last ten years or so.  There are very few from more recent years, but apparently I used to go quite often.  The other day I went to see "Little Miss Sunshine" (very funny, yes), and they gave me a  thin little paper receipt instead of a ticket.  Sad.

A question for the Democratic Party...

A letter came the other day from the DNC.  The envelope said,

"Let's go for it!"

Um... weren't we going for it before?  Is this really a new strategy?  Maybe that's been the problem...
