Beginner’s Guide to American Politics

Add comment October 18th, 2005

Thanks to this site:

  1. Your president is George W. Bush. He lives in the White House. He doesn't actually do anything except act as a figurehead for American politics, which is kind of embarrassing. I know we all could think of someone a lot more impressive to show as our leader, but American voters screwed it up twice and now we're stuck with him. Well, maybe that's a little harsh, because American voters didn't actually screw up any elections; electronic voting machines did that for them.

Daily Tao - Chapter 4

Add comment October 18th, 2005

Today's Daily Tao is:

Limitless

The Way is a limitless vessel;
Used by the self, it is not filled by the world;
It cannot be cut, knotted, dimmed or stilled;
Its depths are hidden, ubiquitous and eternal;
I don't know where it comes from;
It comes before nature.

The Way is that which carries us, has no limits, is not material and therefore unchangeable, and is eternal in its nature. To me, the Way is the energy of the universe. It carries us, is not able to be cut, knotted, dimmed or stilled, is hidden and eternal
