FreeWill Finds Wisdom In Folly

Sagittarius Horoscope for week of February 4, 2016

Richard P. Feynman was a brilliant physicist who won a Nobel Prize in 1965 for his pioneering work in quantum electrodynamics. He also played the bongo drums and was a competent artist. But excessive pride was not a problem for him. "I'm smart enough to know that I'm dumb," he testified. "The first principle is that you must not fool yourself -- and you are the easiest person to fool." I suggest you adopt him as your role model for the next two weeks, Sagittarius. All of us need periodic reminders that we've got a lot to learn, and this is your time. Be extra vigilant in protecting yourself from your own misinformation and misdirection.

I applied to be a Delegate at one of the Presidential Election National Conventions overnight.  I'm not fooling myself in believing that I'll get my ticket--but I sort of feel that my chances are good.  We'll see in March.

This Way Leads To Madness

Or BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL II?

My research addiction led me to British Motor Heritage, which produces repro parts of British cars from the Sixties and Seventies. As my father had two MG Midgets in his driving lifetime, this has immediate appeal to me...the possibility of buying a brand new body of a classic sports car and making a 21st century iteration.

Maybe something to add to the "if I win Publishers Clearinghouse" wishlist.

(I'm "relieved" they don't have TR7/TR8 bodies in white yet. That would really bend some minds.)
