Up late after a sister called me well into the evening to remind me how dire my circumstances are sans meaningful employment, like I wasn't aware of the same, I'm now thinking of Kurt Vonnegut. I'm not really sad as he'd surely done plenty in his many years and has left a legacy indeed yet I'd grown rather fond of this amazing man these last few years. It's perhaps appropriate to turn to the Indianapolis Star for the report of his death. Think I'll pull down his A Man Without a Country for a touch and then see if I can get some sleep. Peace ... or War! Nearly 50 years in east Alabama, a surname going back to Vikings invading Scotland, and finally too much religious fundamentalism coupled to reactionary radicalism motivates me. I'll share (rarely as of late) my ideas on politics, learning, ... My clan supposedly uses "Peace ... or War!" Maybe those genes compel me to join issue? (Propservralism = PRogressivism + pOPulism + conSERVatism + libeRAL + pragmatISM) Respectfully, John Gunn

Kurt Vonnegut ~ 1922 to 2007
