Desires

Not that you asked, but...
Far be it from me to seek material amusements, and yet I do. David is hard at work on a Drupal version of our material wants list, which would be a tad less consumerist of me. In the meantime I post those items I desire (but do not require) to an assortment of Amazon wish lists.

Quote of the Day 1: I believe that I know the specific amount needed that would allow me to have or do these few things I can't quite afford, and if my income would increase by that much I would then be happy. Yet when the increase comes, I find that I am still discontent because from my new financial position I can now see a whole new set of things I don't have. The problem will be solved when I accept that happiness is a present attitude, not a future condition. --from Notes to Myself: My struggle to become a person by Hugh Prather

Quote of the day 2: A hypocrite is the kind of politician who would cut down a redwood tree, then mount the stump and make a speech for conservation. --Adlai E. Stevenson

Happy Valentine's Day by the way. Let love be all around you.
