Am I the only one who thinks there is often TMI posted?
What fresh hell can this be? - Dorothy Parker
The body uses nightmares to wake you up. Thus, I recently had a dream in which I was suddenly urged to go to church and be with very religious Christians, which disturbed me so much that I woke up only to realize that, in reality, I just needed to pee.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
I am woken up by needing-to-pee dreams nearly every night, often multiple times. Sometimes I am frantically searching for places to pee but all are taken. Sometimes there are places available but there is a crowd watching me. Sometimes there are places available but they are filthy and disgusting beyond description.
Such is the joy of a man getting old. It reminds me of a Star Trek TNG episode where the Enterprise is rushing to rescue a man suffering from the ravages of old age and Picard asks the android Data, "You still want to be one of us?" I wish I was an android.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

I notice Leonardo hasn’t put in an appearance since we’ve been back up. I suppose it’s too much to hope for…
