It's usually fear of the unknown that people won't change their ways. Or, that dreaded word "rigidity." It's like saying Rembrandt wasn't a great artist because he didn't "paint" all his pictures in charcoal.

And we all do the best we can with what we have at any given time in our lives. And to remember that no matter the question, love is the answer.

changed my mind. i've already put in a full day at the office, and here.
let's all remember that it IS possible to express an opinion, or a counterpoint to somebody else's opinion without being nasty.
Please remember the dress code:
Plan to arrive dressed for a neighborhood block party. Please feel free to wear anything you like except the following:
-knotted shorts
-twisted knickers
-cranky pants
-sack cloth and ashes
-any variation or style of said articles of clothing
and no snooty shoes, either, please. they leave marks on the carpet.
