Do I count as a new member?  It's been a while (or is that "awhile"?) since
I've contributed.  My philosophy is still as it was before: "it is what it
is."  Doesn't leave much room for debate.  Should and ought have no
standing when it comes to is.  Anyway, I have missed Phil-Lit-Lit-Id if
only because it is usually the only email I ever get got gotten.  Still
fascinated by cool breezes.  Still try to count the number of
nitrogen-hydrogen-oxygen molecules smashing into my face every fraction of
a fraction of a second.  And looking at oak trees I'm still grateful that
trees can't walk.  God was good when he made that rule.  The only
difference in my life now is that I'm a socialist.  I've always believed in
socialism, of course, but now I'm a real live rooting-tooting socialist.
 That is, I live in U. S. government subsidized housing sponsored by the
Catholic diocese of Memphis.  Life is sweet.  It took a couple of
life-style threats to my life to soften these people's hearts, but at last
I am victorious.  Ironic, you say, that I should end up back in the arms of
Holy Mother the Church.  Not at all,  I gave them 25 of my best years, time
they done did some good unto me. Ha!  I've even got God involved in this
Socialism.  Take care, my droogies.
