Have I mentioned how I love Jon Favreau?

"...Adhering to this law of love has always been the core struggle of human nature. We are fallible. We make mistakes, and fall victim to the temptations of pride, and power, and sometimes evil. Even those of us with the best intentions will at times fail to right the wrongs before us.

But we do not have to think that human nature is perfect for us to still believe that the human condition can be perfected. We do not have to live in an idealized world to still reach for those ideals that will make it a better place. The non-violence practiced by men like Gandhi and King may not have been practical or possible in every circumstance, but the love that they preached - their faith in human progress - must always be the North Star that guides us on our journey..."

Annush's words of wisdom v. 2.0

(brought to you by 2 Nyquil and 2 Contac downed with TheraFlu)

so if I'm dead tomorrow morning, we'll all know what killed me...blame MS the realtor for that one.

Lying is a bad thing and people should steer away from such behavior especially when it involves other people and it could hurt someone else. If you MUST go out and do something (or someone) you shouldn't be out doing, think about it long and hard before you do. If you find that you must do it anyway, do it in such a way that you don't get other people involved, make other people look bad, cause people any grief, or that people who live a gazillion miles away don't get to hear about it (namely, ME!) because if it gets this far you know that it's not only allies (namely, ME!) who are listening...

Karma is a bitch...and do you really want someone doing behind your back what you are doing behind theirs?
