Lies, Damned Lies, and Statistics....

My friend Faust. If Alec Baldwin, Edward Norton, and Christian Bale had a lovechild, it would be Faust. Although it's been a few years since we've been able to hang out with any frequency he will always be one of my best friends. A great person to turn to for advice for two reasons. First is that if you take his advice, it's usually the right thing, second is that if you don't take his advice it doesn't bother him and he'll stand by you.

My Faust is a force of nature.

Never before have I met a man with a greater passion for living. It is rare that I meet men that have the ability to change the lives of many; to change the world.

Faust is one of them.

His presence on this Earth is a blessing to me, and I am honored to stand with him in life and love as my equal partner.

He has changed my world.

Thoughts and Observations

Moving. That would be the radox trait I would assign to last night's Genesis concert at the HP Pavillion in San Jose, Ca.

Madame Bovary & I had plumped for the $245.00 seats in section 116. It was well worth the expense. We had a oblique shot of the stage. I was looking over Chester's right shoulder the entire night, & had an excellent view of Phil at his kit.

I only saw Genesis once before at the ass end of Oakland coliseum for the We Can't Dance Tour. This was much, much better.

So, 2007 is looking up for my musical side. As if the news of a Genesis reunion tour wasn't awesome enough, I see today that the fuggin' Police are getting back together to play a song at the Grammy's!!!

The word is a tour will follow. Now, I'm thinking that the two bands doing the reunion thing in the same year is waaaaay to much Synchronicity for me to take in Tonight, Tonight, Tonight.

I'm going to bed.

So not ten minutes ago I was sitting here looking at books by one of the great thinkers of our day, Colin Wilson, when I wondered what was going on with another of our great thinkers, Robert Anton Wilson (no relation). I googled him, wondering if he'd died yet from his post-polio complications and found this:

Robert Anton Wilson, author of 'Illuminatus' trilogy, dies at 74

...the Gunpowder, Treason, & Plot.

Happy Guy Fawkes Day everyone!

I recommend metaphorically blowing up your own personal Parlaiment building. You know, something in your life that has become authoritarian and prevents you from being intellectually, emotionally, or spiritually free. Identify it, then blow it up in your mind.

Be your own liberator. Metaphorically speaking.

Live like you mean it,

Faust

What follows is a list of attributes and behaviors that constitute what, in my experience, it means to be a Man. I have grouped these items into 12 categories based on their relevance to each other. This list is gleaned from 36 years of observation, research, and application. It is the sum of my experience, both academic and practical. Use this as a litmus test for identifying a healthy Man.
