"History would be an excellent thing if only it were true."
-Leo Tolstoy Russian author (1828-1910)
I wholeheartedly concur Mr.T!

Hey Louis! Thank you for dropping by my blog today! I appreciate your comment as well. I agree with Mr. T Just recently I heard a news story about how our history books are filled with false information, or just inaccurate info. These are the same books they are teaching our children about our history in the schools. Why don't human beings understand that just because we re-write history doesn't make it so? take care my new friend, Julian :)
Hi Julian- So true! Say you have 5 people watching the same event. You'll most likely have 5 different vantage points as well as points of view or interpretations of said event..........or not.
PS- Julian don't be a hopeless believer, be a believer-believer! ;^)
Hello Nariane- aka "me", THANKS so much for your comment. Feel free to stop by FLAST anytime & often, where I most likely will thrill you w/brilliant posts about NOTHING! ;^)
Lyn- THANKS for commenting, it's nice you dropped by. I'm all for the truth, although it can tend to be boring. I like to spice it up a bit as well. Keeps things creative & usually interesting.
I named this blog after a book of poems and/or short stories I had hoped to one day write. Who knows if and when that may happen. I hope it does. In the meantime, I have this blog.
I had some difficulty choosing titles. The others that appealed to me were; "The Insomniacs Lament" and "Defying Gravity". I also briefly considered naming it "The Bitch Blog" as I was recently reminded that I tend to complain. Hey, where else better to do that then a blog for crap sakes!
blog discription:
Brain activity that occasionally flows through my body, into my arms, and down into my hands. These instruments of doom (slowly) type words that hopefully may, or may not, touch your heart, or at least make you think without causing a headache.
If in fact that does not occur, please forward all calls and complaints to management, who rarely answers the phone, and most likely doesn't care. Thank you for your perceived understanding.
Finally, all words, thoughts, and deeds are protected/copyrighted somewhere in Washington D.C. If you abuse said rights, I'll most likely sue your ass if I'm able to locate it. I may possibly leave the rest of your body alone....................or will I?
P.S.- Said creative writer removes himself from all responsibilty for each and every spelling and grammatical error found within the blog you'll probably never read. Again, thank you for your hopeful understanding.
I'm a SWM, rapidly approaching middle age, also known as "manopause". Born to parents I never knew. I've recently become aware that I am one of six twins, scattered throughout the world. I'm damn good looking for my age, and live like a king! Destined to die alone, unless I'm able to finally find a woman unstable enough to deal with my stuff. Including some issues, back issues, and a somewhat lightweight carry on, that now costs $15.00 if you want to check it!

The winners write the history!

Will, dude- what about the losers?!
If only history were true...or weren't in some cases.
Dear Mr. Tolstoy,
I wish more of History wasn't true...
hugs and kisses,
Me
Hey Gwennie- I agree, as usual! :-)

Generally my reality involves playing with the truth.. a little nip here, a little tuck there!
