Trial and Error
I guess I’m a big picture person like Lincoln and Reagan.
With a caring heart like FDR and LBJ.
Good morning … a pain in the butt it is.
Selfishness, the sin.
The devil rules the world and God is the judge, Bob Dylan line.
For most part in the real world you get paid for the danger of your job.
But there’s money who plays it smart; also to live long and prosper you have to use your brain.
Edison’s goal for the light bulb was the electric light; a talented man he was.
