Good things

Sometimes, it seems, that the cosmos figures out it’s been fucking up too much lately, and does something right for a change.

The other day I wrote about another blogger who, at the time, was watching his wife struggling in ICU and hoping and praying that she pulled through.

If today’s post is any indication, things are going to be okay. Miracles still happen.

And his poor wife will have to wake up to the news that Britney and K-Fed are K-Divorcing. He’d better break it to her gently.

History lesson! History lesson!

“A little patience, and we shall see the reign of witches pass over, their spells dissolve, and the people, recovering their true sight, restore their government to its true principles. It is true that in the meantime we are suffering deeply in spirit, and incurring the horrors of a war and long oppressions of enormous public debt. If the game runs sometimes against us at home we must have patience till luck turns, and then we shall have an opportunity of winning back the principles we have lost, for this is a game where principles are at stake.”

— Thomas Jefferson, 1798. In a letter written after the passage of the Alien and Sedition Acts.
