When AI goes Country
Take Back Your Faith From the American Dream
I don't know what book or books you are reading right now and at this point, I really don't care. Put it down. Put them all down and pick this one up, open it, read it. I triple-dog-dare you (that's right, I'm skipping the "triple dare," and am going straight for the throat)!
Buy it.
Borrow it.
Don't steal it (stealing is sin).
Check it out from the library (and if they don't have it, get it by Inter-library loan).
Buy a case, give them away.
Wish-list it.
Trade for it.
Have someone read it to you.
Read it over someone's shoulder (ask, first. Have some couth).
Read it out loud in Sunday School.
Get it in large print.
Get it in Braille.
Get someone to translate it for you.
It will wreck your life.

Not sure what she was wishing, but that's not how to do it. Epictetus hel...
Three New Additions To My Desk
Actually, it’s an ad-duck-tion. I missed the perfect opportunity to say, “and they’re in a row, too!” Silly goose.
Rock Me, Epictetus!
“Keep constant guard over your perceptions, for it is no small thing you are protecting, but your respect, trustworthiness and steadiness, peace of mind, freedom from pain and fear, in a word your freedom. For what would you sell these things?” EPICTETUS, DISCOURSES, 4.3.6 b –8
