Its always refreshing to know that no matter how weird of a thought I have – someone else has had the same idea and written about it on the internet. Not that off shore bank accounts are weird by any means, and thats not even what I was thinking about when I wrote that first sentence; but now that I’m thinking about it, I might as well try and figure out how to shield my $22 in liquid assets from my government’s greedy spoiled-child-like entitlement.

Nothing signals the beginning of snowboard than the sweet sweet basslines of the technique ricocheting against my jeep windows and I once again become the alchemist of soup in the Royal House of Plantagenet. I don’t care if that doesn’t make any sense. Just like Corey Daye foreshadows springs arrival, Eric B & Rakim are always the harbingers of the snow season.

Educating you against your will:

He (Periander) had sent a herald to Thrasybulus and inquired in what way he would best and most safely govern his city. Thrasybulus led the man who had come from Periander outside the town, and entered into a sown field. As he walked through the corn, continually asking why the messenger had come to him from Cypselus, he kept cutting off all the tallest ears of wheat which he could see, and throwing them away, until he had destroyed the best and richest part of the crop. Then, after passing through the place and speaking no word of counsel, he sent the herald away. When the herald returned to Cypselus, Periander desired to hear what counsel he brought, but the man said that Thrasybulus had given him none. the herald added that it was a strange man to whom he had been sent, a madman and a destroyer of his own possessions, telling Periander what he had seen Thrasybulus do. Periander, however, understood what had been done, and perceived that Thrasybulus had counselled him to slay those of his townsmen who were outstanding in influence or ability; with that he began to deal with his citizens in an evil manner. – Aristotle’s Politics (Book 5, Chapter 10)
