Did anyone else watch Bill Maher on The Daily Show last night?
It occurred to me, after the show was over, that Bill Maher might be the closest modern equivalent to Henry David Thoreau. He has absolutely no hesitation saying what he believes. Regardless of what you might personally think of him, you have to respect his commitment to what he believes.
Let’s start with the apology…
Gilgrim, I totally meant to call you Saturday but when I got home from the kid’s gymnastics class I spent the whole afternoon and night in bed with a migraine. OK, I woke up at around 9 to wash the dishes but then went back to bed. Sorry about that.
I did attempt to send you several text messages yesterday but was thwarted each time by my phone. I’m not sure what exactly it says about me that when I match wits against an inanimate object I lose miserably. Well, I’m sure I could figure out what that says but I don’t want to.
