Benjamin Franklin is my hero
 
From a newsletter I get (about the printing industry):

Not too long after the founding of the American republic, a citizen complained to Franklin that he had not received the "happiness" promised in the Declaration of Independence. Franklin replied that "the Declaratoin's 'persuit of happiness' only gives you the right to pursue happiness -- you have to catch it yourself."

A Canadian once explained to my father that America is all about the "pursuit of happiness" while Canadians are just happy.

I hope that I can spend the rest of my life trying to always make it better.

On that same line of thinking...
I hope 'someday' comes soon.

You know, like someday I hope to be financially well off... etc....

"Take a pinch of keyhole
And fold yourself up
You cut along the dotted line
You think inside out
And you’re invisible"

...it's from the new Kate Bush album.

Perfect. I will let you know as soon as I find the song, and as soon as I try those directions.

How is it that I hate Tagalongs (and other peanut butter cookies), but adore Reese's peanut butter cups and Reese's Pieces?
