I guess really whoever wants to meet me. (actually, is it possible to be extremely anti-social and yet have a plethura of wonderful friends?) you don't have to be "cynical and witty" to talk to me." A man's intelligence can be assessed

And you're able to tiptoe around your lion - and put up with the occasional fit.
What Sign Is Your True Love?"Love, friendship, respect, admiration are the emotional response of one man to the virtues of another, the spiritual payment given in exchange for the personal, selfish pleasure which one man derives from the virtues of another man's character. Only a brute or an altruist would claim that the appreciation of another person's virtues is an act of selflessness, that as far as one's own selfish interest and pleasure are concerned, it makes no difference whether one deals with a genius or a fool, whether one meets a hero or a thug, whether one marries an ideal woman or a slut."
— Ayn Rand
Your Dosha is Pitta
You have a quick mind, a gift for persuasion, and a sharp sense of humor.
You have both the drive and people skills to be a very successful leader.
Argumentative and a bit stubborn, you have been known to be a little too set in your ways.
But while you may be biased toward your own point of view, you are always honest, fair, and ethical.
With friends: You are outgoing and open to anyone who might want to talk to you
In love: You are picky but passionate
To achieve more balance: Be less judgmental of those around you, and take cool walks in the moonlight.
What's Your Dosha?"It is possible that intelligence in the wrong kind of species was foreordained to be a fatal combination for the biosphere. Perhaps a law of evolution is that intelligence usually extinguishes itself. This admittedly dour scenario is based on what can be termed the juggernaut theory of human nature, which holds that people are programmed by their genetic heritage to be so selfish that a sense of global responsibility will come too late. Individuals place themselves first, family second, tribe third and the rest of the world a distant fourth. Their genes also predispose them to plan ahead for one or two generations at most."
- E.O. Wilson

One of the basic troubles with radio and television news is that both instruments have grown up as an incompatible combination of show business, advertising and news. Each of the three is a rather bizarre and demanding profession. And when you get all three under one roof, the dust never settles. The top management of the networks with a few notable exceptions, has been trained in advertising, research, sales or show business. But by the nature of the coporate structure, they also make the final and crucial decisions having to do with news and public affairs. Frequently they have neither the time nor the competence to do this. It is not easy for the same small group of men to decide whether to buy a new station for millions of dollars, build a new building, alter the rate card, buy a new Western, sell a soap opera, decide what defensive line to take in connection with the latest Congressional inquiry, how much money to spend on promoting a new program, what additions or deletions should be made in the existing covey or clutch of vice-presidents, and at the same time-- frequently on the same long day--to give mature, thoughtful consideration to the manifold problems that confront those who are charged with the responsibility for news and public affairs. - Edward R. Murrow, 1958

***"Naturally, the common people don't want war, but after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag people along whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders, this is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifist for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in every country."Herman Goehring, Hitlers Reich Marshal

Ink is handicapped, in a way, because you can blow up a man with gunpowder in half a second, while it may take twenty years to blow him up with a book. But the gunpowder destroys itself along with its victim, while a book can keep on exploding for centuries. - Christopher Morley

Heroes:
We Don't Need Another Hero

All we want is what's beyond thunderdome--a hero gets the job done. personal safety is an afterthought. A hero takes risks but is not impulsive or oblivious. Anyone can be a hero. Fifteen minutes of fame is not required, and the sage despises praise (TTC). I highly respect those who have suffered child abuse or neglect, mental illness or substance/alcohol abuse, serious disability, severe oppression, overwhelming loss...and gone on to lead fulfilling, productive, and impactful lives. It would be impossible to list all those who have gone beyond the call of just existing-both those famous and unknown-overcoming great tragedy,enduring prolonged suffering, accomplishing the formerly impossible, and those who have gifted the world with such excellence in their fields, strength of human character, depth of sacrifice and love-the folks who continue to shine their light, bringing inspiration,beauty, and hope to us all.
For me the first person who forced me to be conscious of the vast world beyond my own selfish concerns-the first time it actually dawned in my developing mind that greatness and sorrow both await each of us-and that a few of our lives-our character, our strength, and our weaknesses-may affect millions. That individual was Christa McAuliffe, the first Teacher in space with NASA, who lost her life while my elementary school classed watched the Challenger shuttle explode on live television. Many other significant events would mark my early life-the falling of the Berlin Wall, the San Francisco Earthquake, the beggining of Operation Desert Storm, the LA riots, the HIV crisis and the end of Aparthheid in South Africa. The public school teachers who helped save my life-who also introduced me to native american genocide, black slavery,the bloodshed of our own Union/Confederacy conflict, the liberation footage of German death camps, and the heart-wrenching personal narratives of Hiroshima victims.In a small classroom in a tiny all white town I got a taste of blood in Pol Pot, Rwandan villages, Birmingham school marches,mass environmental destruction/wholesale extinction,& an individiual brave enough to stare down a tank at Tianneman square. I will forever be in their debt.We must always remember that we owe our lives and the triumphs of our civilization to those who have gone before.
