Opening remarks and other thoughts from the back burner

Many thanks are in order here, more than I will attempt to address at this time! Suffice it to say thank you to my creator for any skills that I have or may demonstrate in this endeavor, and to my colleague for his willingness to include me as a co-conspiritor in what I believe to be a worthwhile endeavor, that being the institute of human government in all of its erstwhile forms and functions past, present,and future. There are many reasons why we should expend energy on these considerations, and one could wax philosophic for hours of the importance of deliberation, once again, suffice it to say that I really enjoy talking about this shit, and Rocker does too, so as often as our schedules allow,we get together,and
take notes. That's the great part about the whole thing, we learn from each other! And as an educator, it don't get any better than that! The Rocker is one of the few people that I know that can walk away from the table in disagreement, and still come back the next day in friendship, and
usually with another good perspective in support of what he believes to be the truth. You gotta love anybody who loves himself that much! In the end,
that was the reason that I decided to do this blog with him. As he has already said, we share many points of communion. Our differences, I think,
are to be found in our abiding trust of human nature,and thus perhaps, in the end, our inherent faith in ourselves. As I try to be honest in all of my conversations(let them be as of God), I need the help of every honest man. It takes two to speak the truth- one to speak,and one to hear. So to all of you who take the time to read these words, may they be a light unto your path, as they have been unto mine. The Revolution will not be televised.
