DEEP THOUGHTS: I believe in the pursuit of happiness. Not its attainment, nor its final definition, but its pursuit. I believe in the journey, not the arrival; in conversation, not monologues; in multiple questions rather than any single answer. I believe in the struggle to remake ourselves and challenge each other in the spirit of eternal forgiveness, in the awareness that none of us knows for sure what happiness truly is, but each of us knows the imperative to keep searching. I believe in the possibility of surprising joy, of serenity through pain, of homecoming through exile.
HOLIDAY: Biodiesel Day, Lazy Sunday, Lion Day
HOROSCOPE: Admitting failure has never been your strong suit. Thankfully, this week's stench will say more than mere words ever could.
HOW-TO: Be Lazy
JOKE: A man came to see his family doctor. The man told his doctor that he wasn't able to do all the things around the house that he used to do. When the examination was complete, he said: "Now, Doc, I can take it. Tell me in plain English what is wrong with me." "Well, in plain English," the doctor replied, "you're just lazy." "Okay," said the man. "Now give me the medical term so I can tell my wife."

Good riddance. 1993 - Ruth Bader Ginsburg was sworn in as the second female Supreme Court justice. 1988 - President Ronald Reagan signed a measure providing $20,000 payments to Japanese-Americans interned by the U.S. government during World War II. 1981 – Murder of Adam Walsh: The head of John Walsh's son is found.
