"When you begin to think outside the box, you often become some other "leaders" lousy follower. That usually costs something" (Andy Rayner)

"Our guardian angels are bored." (Mike Foster)

It's where I feel I'm at these days. “In the second half of life, it is good just to be a part of the general dance. We do not have to stand out, make defining moves, or be better than anyone else on the dance floor. Life is more participatory than assertive, and there is no need for strong or further self-definition” (Falling Upward. Richard Rohr.120).

You Must Denounce Or You're Guilty!

"Our favourite prosecutor pulled out his canonical weapon of last resort:
"Ultimately, failure to 'denounce' is a category of crime....
Now there's something that couldn't miss! This represented a discovery that judicial thought had made in the new Code.
It was a paved highway along which they would keep driving and driving grateful descendants into Siberia!"
