Sanitary Hand Wipes
Exposed surfaces are covered with germs! I cannot risk infection; I demand a supply of sanitary hand wipes (and don't give me any of that alcohol gel crap, that leaves all the dead germs still upon my mitts)
Unlimited Refills
Life, itself, can be a thirsty business. Top off my coffee, won't ya, Hon?
Cholula Hot Sauce
Tabasco is too watery and vinegary. How can I eat my Mahi-Mahi fish taco without adequate flavor and heat?

Sleep I am pretty sure I will live past 11pm, so I gotta get some sleep.
Eat French Food I cannot contemplate dying without more French food touching my lips.
Eat Japanese Food Need raw fish!
View Duchamp's "Étant donnés" at the Philadelphia Museum of Art If art did not exist, Duchamp would have invented it.
Shower After all of this, I better shower. If I go past 48 hours, I get really musky stinky.

Who among us doesn't love space travel in a flume log, with silver and blue paint? Let's sing about mankind's favorite indoor roller-coaster, Space Mountain!
(verse 1) Feel the rumble in our seats,
70's cheese sci-fi sound effects "bloops" and "beeps",
I hear the the clacking of the anti-rollback device,
The warmth of the over-the-shoulder restraint feels very nice.
(chorus)
Space Hill, Space Mound, we're swerving again,
Roll me and Coast me, Space Mountain
(verse 2)
I drop my Goofy Gum Drops upon the tracks,
Millions of riders that barfed up their snacks,
I can't see my hand in front of my face,
If you hear preteens screaming, you must be in Space!
(shredding guitar, leading to bridge)
(chorus)
Space Hill, Space Mound, we're swerving again,
Roll me and Coast me, Space Mountain

Could Billy Mays' beard beat up Chuck Norris' beard?
Mighty Putty took my breath away. Hauling an 18 wheeler! Hanging up a shelf on a brick wall. Making a ghetto coffee mug. Mighty Putty does it all while screaming.
Glistening jaws, the shark possesses, devouring the succulent bear. But both would bow before the majesty of the bear holding a shark.
I don't think much of lying for self-protection, but, for me, lying to protect somebody's feelings is the right thing to do.
People who tell the truth when they know it will devastate a person are just being a self-righteous bastard. [ I have done this myself, to my shame. It sucks when somebody pulls a question on you all quick-like, and you don't have time to come up with a proper lie. ]

Voltaire can lay down the snaps, yo. Dry irony and satire.

I agree that human capital and physical infrastructure are crucial to growth. I’m even happy to agree that government investment in education has more than paid for itself over the years in added growth. But I also think the evidence points to the idea that returns to public investment in the status quo system of education have diminished to basically nothing. No Democrat is going to do anything to run afoul of their party’s most powerful client in order to promote the deep structural changes needed in primary education to actually improve the quantity and quality of American human capital. So instead we get free money for college, which is Obama’s way of saying “thank you” to the loyal, powerful bloc of Democrats who make their living pouring valuable human capital into nineteen-year-olds by making them pretend to have read Plato and Beloved.My comment:
Wilkinson:> ...promote the deep structural changes needed in primary education to actually improve the quantity and quality of American human capital...But the fact remains that when businesses hire, a person having gone to a private primary school or a charter primary school (as opposed to a public primary school) commands no higher wages. I hire; the issues affects me personally. If the private school or charter school had a document certifying modern workforce training to the student (with the ability to test to confirm, and retrain at no cost to the business if the skills are actually below what is certified), I would be pretty damn impressed. If such a thing exists for private or charter schools, it is well hidden and very scarce. Until then, why would a business pay a premium for a person who received primary school education at a private or charter school? And if public school is good enough, how can change be expected to happen?Dan:> ...I think far too many people are getting pushed into college...Business do pay a premium for college educated students. Again, if there was a form of technical schooling (associate degree) that had some certifying/testing/retraining guarantees for work skills, businesses would be pretty damn impressed, and would hire those people above people with some college education. I would like to see such resumes.
The way to break out of laziness and inertia is to get really mad at our current state. Personally, disgusted with what we have allowed ourselves to become.
Less time spent on thinking about entitlements, more time spent on thinking about responsibilities. Then working on the problem, not whining about it. I guess more time reading Larry Winget. And putting that Ol' Baldie's ideas into effect.
Homeownership is pretty nice, will be moving from a 30 year fixed to 15 year fixed. The front of the house is pretty shabby; grubby lawn, and a need for paint (also a huge stack of paver bricks I am too lazy to move to back yard, surprised the city doesn't fine my ass). Painting your house? I can't recommend Vietnamese handyman. Good for the first 75% of the job, but that is all you will pay for, and that is all you will get.
Paint bubbles! Paint peeling!
I installed a ceiling fan in my kitchen. That is about my limit. My Hypervigilance [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypervigilance ] makes any project I under-go exhausting for me, and mind-boggling for anyone watching.
