I can taste the tension with a knife.
Teddy likes her-
Sitting next to me.
It drives him nutz
That I am sitting
in the bar-seat
Right beside her;
Business Woman at the Bar
She has no idea that I am writing about her at this exact moment in time.

Konstantin Kisin Speaks To The Oxford Union’s Woke Deplorables
“We know that the way to improve the world is to work, is to create; it is to build”
Cigar in the 1995 Breeders’ Cup
“…followed by Tinner’s Way and Concern is still last; three furlongs to go. CIGAR!!! Cigar Makes His Move; and he Sweeps to the lead with a dramatic rush!”
Allen Paulson named most of his racehorses after aircraft check points and aviation terms.
“Cigar,” is a mnemonic that refers to a pre-takeoff checklist performed by Untied States Air Force pilots. It stands for:
• Controls
• Instruments
• Gas
• Airplane secure
• Run-up.
Of Noble Men
“…Come I to speak in Caesar’s funeral….”
Friends, Romans, countrymen,
lend me your ears;
I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him.
The evil that men do lives after them;
The good is oft
interred with their bones;

About James Madison
“…Madison was the correlation between education and liberty. He famously wrote,
‘Learned Institutions ought to be favorite objects with every free people. They throw light over the public mind, which is the best security against crafty and dangerous encroachments on the public liberty.’”

Shaolin Monks’ Celibacy
As the Monk chooses celibacy,
Chip Van Hassel
his focus shifts.
His eyes are no longer
clouded-over
by selfish yearnings
of lust.
His newly-found perception
differs from that of the laymen’s’;
for the monk is removed from selfish ambition.
{Therefore,}
The Monk’s frequency is non-combative.
Non-combativeness
nullifies the natural,
aggressive
synapses

are predisposed
The Occasion Always Comes to Us
“The hour of proving one’s self is always afoot!”
-Chip Van Hassel
“The million occasions
Albert Pike
will come to us all,
in the ordinary paths of our life,
in our homes,
and by our firesides,
wherein we may act as nobly,
as if, all our life long,
we led armies,
sat in senates,
or visited beds of sickness and pain.
Varying every hour,
the million occasions will come
in which we may
restrain our passions,
subdue our hearts to gentleness
and patience,
resign our own interest for another’s advantage,
speak words of kindness and wisdom,
raise the fallen,
cheer the fainting and sick in spirit,
and soften and assuage the weariness and bitterness
of their mortal lot.”
Airplane Points!
On a train, a kid asks his mom, “what are points?”
She explains,
“The more times you ride the train, you get points,
and you can get stuff with them.”
“An airplane?” he asked.
I wanted to say,
My Travels
“yea,
you can get a fucking airplane with them, kid!”
Stability
“Want” and “need” know nothing of love.
Changing your life means Doing what is necessary.
Human nature is funny
in that two people can read
the same words on the page,
and, even though they are on the same page,
they still read the words differently.
There is always an independent variable-
which is not open for interpretation.
The soul
deep down
in a person’s heart

Righteous Heart
“The heart of the righteous weighs its answers,
Proverbs 15:28
but the mouth of the wicked gushes evil.”
The Narcissist Lies about Horses
The Narcissist Lies to the boss, saying that other riders are running into her with their horses. She is simply Lying.
