Don't you ever feel ...

...like everything we do and everything we've been taught is just to service the future?

...

You know, I'd like to quit thinking of the present, like right now, as some minor insignificant preamble to something else.

3. Look ...

All I'm sayin' is, behind every good man there is a woman, and that woman was Martha Washington, man, and everyday George would come home, she would have a big fat bowl waiting for him, man, when he come in the door, man, she was a hip, hip, hip lady, man.

2. Usually I'm too busy servicing the future to actually feel anything about it
but now that I think about it, you're onto something here

14. Oh, I'm a complete moron ...
I somehow managed to miss your response to my PM before I went and thought maybe you were away at the time.

The fates are against us I guess.

Yeah, I had a good time, aside from shock I received when I saw the "DO NOT ENTER" signs and the armed guard at the Capitol building. Having a guy, holding an automatic weapon, look dead at you as you take his picture just ain't comfortable.



I'll be back.

15. The understandable response of a leader who is reviled...
Only a hateful ruler would be so hated.

Let me know when you're out this way again! :toast:

16. Maybe..........
maybe just clarify. Why do you feel this way?

For myself, I'm always thinking of the future, both near and far. My problem is I sometimes don't live in the present, or just relax and enjoy it more.

that's just me, though.
