Life is a series of continuous lotteries.
Buy a ticket and expect to lose.
I am fortunate to be a winner.
I don't expect to win again.
I am happy to play at all.
Life is a gamble.
Double down.
Go big.
Go home.

Jimmy Beam is My Love
Sharing is caring - I believe this is a common phrase used to teach children. As a child, I believed it to be true. Now, as an adult, I am not as certain. Mine, mine, mine. There is a satisfaction that comes with ownership that is discovered as a child, and it is never completely distinguished in the adult.
Years ago I was introduced to a new breed of sunflower seeds, Jim Beam. I believe Shoe Hunter is responsible for this bliss. These seeds are unlike any other. Soaked in real Jim Beam Kentucky Bourbon, these seeds are larger and more crisp than any other variety I have tried. The taste enhances once the shell is cracked. David and Spitz are the Wizards and Clippers of seeds. Jim Beam is the Lakers or Celtics.
On to my moral, I offer some of these seeds to nearly anyone within reach while I am snacking. This is my first mistake. Red Potato Girl, along with a few other friends, has developed an affinity for the seeds. When they reach for the bag now, I often think to myself, "Get your own bag. These are mine."
It might be safe to say that an individual owns personal pleasure. I have concluded that some pleasures should remain private ... although, I am quite happy to share Jim Beam Sunflower Seeds.

Life in the Fast Lane
Dating and job hunting are synonymous. There is little difference between Facebook and Careerbuilder. I have spent hours searching on both and found little to nothing useful. Occasionally, a search query returns a single, attractive blonde with common friends or a local $50K entry level position. In the past, I reacted as most would, I added the blonde bombshell and applied for the entry level position. I know better now. Those queries were microwave searches. I was looking to get something hot fast. My perspective has changed almost completely.There is no rush, no finish line in life. It's not a race. My world will not end in nuclear discharge. Yet, there is contradiction, it is human nature to want and to want right now. So, I suggest an equilibrium. I want a microwave that cools as quickly as it heats.
Fortunately, my search has been narrowed to only occupation ... but then again, what's the difference?
