"I've always
followed my father's advice: he told me, first to always keep my word and,
second, to never insult anybody unintentionally. If I insult you, you can be
goddamn sure I intend to. And, third, he told me not to go around looking for
trouble." John

Poem of the Week
Our Lives Pass Away
Summer sunlight
glitters on the water.
Sweet colors of fall
drift down and land
on my new woodpile.
Winter is full of snow
and cold, but inside
the woodstove glows.
Then spring again
Our lives pass away.
