Blow Hard

It's a new day! It's a new blog! Feelin' good!

They say that s@%t happens. Sometimes it seems that when it rains it pours. And there is not, repeat not, necessarily a pony in every pile. It is not always all good.

But today I just started and look how much B. S. I've already blown away!

Life is good.

Here's my promise to you. I will blow as hard as I can to rid the world of as much of the horse manure that it contains as humanly possible. And I will bring for your consideration as much as I can of things that I love -- the things that have provided a space to breathe amongst all the B. S.

Here's a start.   The Overture to Candide by Leonard Bernstein is a wonderful evocation of both a world gone mad and a breath of fresh air.  Enjoy.


'Til the next time.

P. S. All of you capitalist pigs out there. Be prepared. It ain't going to be pretty.

Welcome

This blog is dedicated to the occcasional jotting down of my more extended essays. My profile will tell you that my areas of formal training are piano performance and philosophy. I have, therefore, the advantage of being an educated layman in economics history, painting, sales, business.

Here is the premise on which my blog is based: A is A. Many consider this an empty, meaningless statement because it is self-evident. But I regard it as powerful for that very reason. It is self-evident that a thing is what it is. In the context of this blog, another way to put it is this: wishing, praying, and government micro- and macro-managemennt will not make it other than it is.


Enjoy
