Road Warriors

Spiro and Phoebe my long-time friends from SoCal/NoIda are in the OC for a few days and I paid them a visit. We talked for hours catching up on everything before venturing out in the rain to brave South Coast Plaza. We had a great early dinner at Wahoo's Fish Taco. It was very nice to see them and their beautiful Tiffin Allegro Bay motorhome. They are the perfect hosts even when they're on the road.

Notable Quotes

"Civilization ends when the pampered beneficiaries of the hard work of the now dead have the luxury of ignoring how hard it was — and is — to build shelter from the elements, to erect public buildings from scrub, to grow food and sprout farms from sage. Our contemporary criminals are protected from the elemental struggle and so have the indulgence to gnaw away at civilization’s veneer — and we, in our conspiratorial silence about them, likewise forgot that to keep still about the destruction of the work of others is to be complicit in it."
~Victor Davis Hanson

"The only man who makes no mistake is the man who does nothing."
~Theodore Roosevelt

"[G]overnment's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it."
~Ronald W. Reagan

"There were a lot of times when we were alone, but I never really thought we were."
~Bill Clinton

"In the time of darkest defeat, victory may be nearest."
~William McKinley

"A pessimist is one who makes difficulties of his opportunities and an optimist is one who makes opportunities of his difficulties."
~Harry S. Truman

"I've now been in 57 states -- I think. One left to go".
~Barak H. Obama
