Philosophy Slam
Still philosophizing after all these years.

An amusing tidbit for the very long, and overall less-than-enthralling Inside U.S.A (pub. 1947), by John Gunther:
"Neverththeless South Carolina has a curious eruptive quality. For instance one senator, Olin D. Johnson, was once a mill hand, and the new governor, J. Strom Thurmond, a youthful war veteran, is a distinct liberal."
So, Strom WAS once a youth! In 1947 . . .

Pascal: The present is never our end. The past and the present are our means, the future alone our end. Thus we never actually live, but hope to live, and since we are always planning how to be happy, it is inevitable that we should never be so.
