But word choice as simple as "why others PROSPER" is a cut above, and there's more where that came from. <br /><br />Jeff, please remind me. I'm gonna feel stupid.<br /><br />RuneE, those are very nice and important distinctions, aren't they. I'm not sure I've heard "method" vs. "ideology" before, and I like it a lot. Maybe it should apply to political institutions as well. <br /><br />AH, I can see why, but other things make me think of that more than this song does. It's just that neighbor-envy (neighbor-hatred?) thing that bugs me here. <br /><br />Of course, I think these two performers could sing "Praising My Carbuncles" and give me the shivers. <br /><br />Thanks, Ken.Banjo52https://www.blogger.com/profile/04342397136888422440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2883979841111173610.post-45114361634243248432011-08-09T14:56:34.739-04:002011-08-09T14:56:34.739-04:00heck, these are beautiful photos!heck, these are beautiful photos!Ken Machttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09100185198750536244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2883979841111173610.post-63072556910847045052011-08-09T13:12:40.571-04:002011-08-09T13:12:40.571-04:00Made me think of something slightly different.

There is a difference between those who change the terrain when the map don't fit, and those who do it the other way around. The first is the hallmark of extremists (whether religious or idealogical), the second of science performed as it should be. Science is not an ideology - it is a method.Rune Eidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01008247272056395901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2883979841111173610.post-57229597133678203702011-08-07T20:33:29.107-04:002011-08-07T20:33:29.107-04:00All I'll say about Winter's Bone... they s...All I'll say about Winter's Bone... they should have made her use a hack saw.Jeff Mnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2883979841111173610.post-897043736581577432011-08-07T17:20:13.335-04:002011-08-07T17:20:13.335-04:00Great words in these lyrics.Great words in these lyrics.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10123691580195879542noreply@blogger.com
