When God closes a door, somewhere he opens a window.

Just so he can slam it on your fingers.

My ten-year high school reunion was last weekend. I paid cough 80-plus dollars for my single ticket. Cash bar. Noisy venue not conducive to talking (think concrete catacomb). Merely adequate catering. No live music or entertainment. No DJ or karaoke. One poorly-uprezed video “slideshow,” most persons being unrecognizable due to the fact of the extreme pixellation and compression artifacting. Crummy “memory book” was basically a multipage booklet with all of our addresses in it. Plus I was one of the only single people there. Oh well, I guess it was good to see a few of my old high school friends, though I had more friends in grades slightly above or below me. They would have been fun to see, too. Facebook.

It is the bastion of the narrow minded to think in polarizations. To any issue there are an infinite number of sides; each time you flip the coin what used to be on the other side will have changed. It is easy to simplify and bifurcate. It is difficult to truly comprehend. Those who want an easy answer shall receive an incomplete solution. Those who ask simple solutions of their leader shall receive one inadequate to the question.
