We must all endeavor to have surpassing arete, like wily Odysseus.

Arete - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

That term and concept was the one tangible thing I can remember gaining from the mandatory philosophy class I took in undergrad. And surprisingly it has stuck with me, and helped me become a better person from the day I learned the term. That is pretty rare in my experience. Arete is the concept of being a man of excellence, literally. In all walks of life, and in everything that you do. Along with my gernanic upbringing this solidified a way of life and of living I practice today. I haven't heard this term discussed by anyone or thought about it other than my own thoughts & thinking in a long time.

did you see the interview with tom homan and a liberal...he straight face destroyed them...the current administration if we can call it that, are watching their heads explode...the f'd around and are now finding out...

If they can get in there and actually stop these insane and constant wars and warring that would be a major accomplishment and plus. That single hand-idly has gutted the middle class since the very early 60's. If they can do that it should not be overly hard to trim back spending even with tax cuts. and no tax on social security retirement.. I for one applaud that idea. Why should I have to pay taxes on my money the government used and gave me back without interest after decades and decades of time? Think that was the work of Billy boy Clinton. Let retirees have some dignity FGS Let 'em have a few nickels & dimes to rub together for some discretionary funds alright already. Geesh!

BTW: That wuz a peacock, not a peahen. Lady peafowl don't grow those fancy long feathers. And after 20+ years of having my family of peafowl here at the Sneakydicker Chateau... I have never seen a nest fulla eggs like that -- wow!

I stole this from a Jedi on this forum
View attachment 19099492

I got to ride in one once as a 6 year-old kid. Old Mrs. Dow across the street told my sister and me to get in her car and she would take us to school. <-- This was unheard-of largess in 1947. Judy was four years older than me, so she sat next to Old Mrs. Dow.

I got to climb up the steps built into the car and open the rumble seat. It was brand-new inside! The front seats were in rags.

Imagine how high I felt with the wind in my hair in a luxury seat!

Gawd. I just did the arithmetic; that was more than three-quarters of a century ago!

Good Morning All (OF's):

Wishing each and every one of you, a pleasant morning, wonderful day, and outstanding evening.
I am currently pretty tied up with projects and work, so wanted to start with a daily check in hello.
Today is Thursday, and one day closer to the weekend on Friday. Will be glad for the break. TGIT!!

See you all tomorrow (again)!

Always liked this idea and song and the singer behind it- GENUINE music! Enjoy your Thursday cuppas, all OF's.

Another perspective. Personally, I have no opinion regarding Bolton. All is horsefeathers and poppycock to me.

Morning gang. Killer sore throat this morning. Asked a friend to bring a shot of liquor to work. Since I quit I don’t have any on hand. Always fixed the sore throat. So we will try that.
Aside from that, not much shaking over here.

 

[Unca Walt]

No arguments here, there’s a couple of nights I could really have done without, but I live in the fast lane and there’s not much I can do about it at this point… I have lived a very exciting life and I can’t tell you what I’ve done in the past has infected what I’m feeling now… It could be a lot worse, cause I’m still mobile…

There it is.

Reconsider any extraneous kissing today.

That song's album popped back into my head late yesterday afternoon Joe when working and would not leave my mind.
So, I used the wayback machine we sometimes call the internet & located it on youtbube. Really great tune, I agree!

 

[Gray Wolf]

yes, there was weed on the inside...quite a disappointment...

In that case, I don't know what to call it. Sounds like they are rolling bud in oil or distillate and Isolate rather than kief.

I guess the proof is in the pudding. How would you rate them?

PHILOSOPHICAL OBSERVATIONS

My girlfriend says I'm cheap, so I took her out for tea and biscuits. It was quite exciting as she had never given blood before.

Non-alcoholic beer is like watching porn on the radio

My wife wants me to wear a bracelet that belonged to her grandfather. It says "Do Not Resuscitate."

It's been months since I bought the book, How To Scam People On Line. It still hasn't arrived yet.

When someone recommends a book to me and says, "It's a page turner!" I say, "Yeah, I know how books work."

If you have a red wine stain on your carpet, get some white wine and drink it until you don't care anymore.

Vitamins are good for what ails you and Viagra is good for what fails you.

One good thing about being wrong is the joy it brings to others.

If your outgoings exceeds your income, then your upkeep will be your downfall.

I think racism is bad and you should treat all races the same whether Brown, Black, Asian, Latino or normal.

Even rarer than a doctor who can't stand the sight of blood is a lawyer who can't stand the sight of money.

If your palm itches, you are going to get something. If your crotch itches, you've already got it.

This threads been averaging 9 pages a day, for the last year. I have a witty reply for a post so many pages ago, I have missed the boat twice. And it was only yesterday.

Good morning brothers and sisters!

More rain starting at 43F and predicted to reach 53F.

I tried to get hold of the Courtesy Ford dealership general manager, but of course just got his voice mail, so I left my contact information and got his email from the phone receptionist.

I sent him an email detailing their performance shortfalls and asked him what he was going to do about it but have gotten no reply as of yet.

Breakfast out this morning and then I will be making an appointment at the Gresham Ford dealership to get the Focus EV checked out. I will then forward my letter to the GM to Fords corporate customer relations department.
