   It pays to leave your options open. Good critical thinking skills.

   I really hate saying much to the sarge. He thinks he has truth bottled up and ready to sell. It ain’t nothing but everclear.

   She is far thinking. I wonder if she is going to home school.

   Alex home-schooling…now there’s an interesting thought! Actually, I can kind of see it, and it’s not that far from the way some of my friends raised their kids (decades ago, of course, LOL).

   Gotcha. And I just left the TruthDig site. Thanks for highlighting! Chris Hedges is not unfamiliar but I haven’t kept up enough..the comments section after the article was refreshing… I ran into a guy at work awhile back (I’m retired, recently) who was cranky, opinionated, and before labelling him as a putz, I learned he was the biggest Chris Hedges fan I’d ever met. This guy didn’t look, sound or act like a liberal, but my preconceptions of liberal behavior and attitudes were altered. Bottom line-Some, but not many, see this all this political division as the diversion created to distract the middle class from its slide into irrelevancy. There is a potential for understanding, but many people are entrenched in the morass of rhetoric. Thanks, and good night!

   And goodnight to you, sir. I am happy to meet someone new who can discuss without thinking we have to agree point to point.

   You’ve never been married, have you (or, at least, you haven’t yet fully grasped the concept …) ?

   You’re not married, are you… ? ;-)

   My wife makes decisions carefully after examining all the options. If I have to spend more than five minutes on a decision like a colour scheme, steam starts coming out of my ears. Over a third of a century of marriage, we have concluded that it’s easier if she just asks me to choose between her final two or three options. She then decides whether I’ve chosen correctly…
