More on him

pretty wild that we just let people have 15 kids

never again.

[michigancat]

Also wild that both Dad and Grandpa married girls like thirty years younger than them after wife number 1 died.

That's the real thing out of all of it IYAM. Like the odds of that happening not once, but twice, and then have kids live that long is kinda insane

The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao.
The name that can be named is not the eternal name.
The Tao is both named and nameless.
As nameless it is the origin of all things. As named it is the mother of 10,000 things.
Ever desireless one can see the mystery. Ever desiring one can only see the manifestation.
The mystery itself is the doorway to all understanding.

~Laozi Tao te Ching, Ch 1. (Wayne Dyer Translation)

[nicname]

Under Heaven all can see beauty as beauty, only because there is ugliness.
All can know good as good, only because there is evil.
Being and non-being produce each other.
The difficult is born in the easy. Long is defined by short; the high by the low.
Before and after go along with each other.

So, the sage lives openly with apparent duality and paradoxical unity.
The sage can act without effort, and teach without words.
Nurturing things without possessing them, he works but not for reward. He competes, but not for result.
When the work is done, it is forgotten. This is why it lasts forever.

in my opin, no.

Putting a value on status will create contentiousness.
If you overvalue possessions, people begin to steal.
By not displaying what is desirable, you will cause the people’s hearts to remain undisturbed.
The sage governs by emptying minds and hearts, by weakening ambitions and strengthening bones.
Practice not doing … when action is pure and selfless, everything settled into its own peaceful place.

~Laozi, Tao te Ching, Ch. 3 (Wayne Dyer Translation)

[nicname]

The Tao is empty, but inexhaustible, bottomless, the ancestor of it all.
Within it, the sharp edges become smooth; the twisted knots loosen; the sun is softened by a cloud; the dust settles into place.
It is hidden, but always present.
I do not know who (or what) gave birth to it.
It seems to be the common ancestor to all, the father of (all) things.

After 2008 (like most people) I switched to giving ass instead of gas.

Heaven and earth are impartial; they see the 10,000 things as straw dogs*.
The sage is not sentimental; he treats all his people as straw dogs.
The sage is like Heaven and earth; to him none are especially dear, nor is there anyone he disfavors.
He gives and gives without condition, offering his treasures to everyone.
Between Heaven and earth is a space like a bellows; empty and inexhaustible, the more it is used, the more it produces.
Hold onto the center.
Man was meant to sit quietly and find the truth within.

Manhattan was a Keystone/Keystone Light test market and cheap AF way back in my time there.

Also, Four Lokos night got me forcefully removed from Last Chance.
