Waging WAR on Ignorance, Intolerance & Injustice!
“There is nothing in the world so irresistibly contagious as laughter and good humour.“ — Charles Dickens
(Which is why I always have to read the funnies every morning! I might not laugh out loud every day, but there’s always something that will bring a smile to my face. Laughter both lightens and lengthens our lives! Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

“No one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of another.” — Charles Dickens
(I think we’re seeing some kind of charitable theme here, folks! Definitely not a problem. I think we all could stand to be a little more charitable. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

Happy birthday to Simon Le Bon of Duran Duran! I’m not really a big fan, but my niece, Nina, is a huge fan. So, this is for her.
“Every baby born into the world is a finer one than the last.” — Charles Dickens
(Boy! Was Chuck feeling good on the day he said this, or what?! Everybody thinks that their baby is the best looking baby ever. But let’s face it. Some babies are truly beautiful, while a good number of them are merely “cute”. But through the eyes of love . . . there is only beauty. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

Happy birthday to Alan White of Yes, and Boy George of The Culture Club!

“The sun himself is weak when he first rises, and gathers strength and courage as the day gets on.” — Charles Dickens
(I guess this was Chuck’s way of saying he wasn’t a morning person! Just kidding. Even morning people need to work up a head of steam. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

“Every baby born into the world is a finer one than the last.” — Charles Dickens
(From the standpoint of the parents maybe. But, from the viewpoint of socially conscious stewards of a planet, that has been said to be on the brink, an argument to the contrary could just as easily be made. During Dickens’ heyday, the mid – later 19th Century, the world’s human population was about 1.4 Billion. Today it stands at over 6.9 Billion, and counting! It took the world roughly 11,870 years to get to 1.4 Billion, but in a little over 140 years we’ve added another 5.5 Billion. If this doesn’t disturb you – even just a little bit – then have an EEG run . . . you might be brain dead.) — YUR
