"betting a lot to earn a little"

Not me, I'm a home run type of guy. I'd rather trot around the bases at my leisure than have to bust butt just to get to first base.

Why? Because I'm a lazy American. I even have a car stereo with a remote control for cripes sake!

But I refuse to be mentally lazy, I'll do my own thinking, thank you. If I were mentally lazy, I would then have no right to whine and cry when the big, mean universe moves against me. And I specifically reserve the privilege of blubbering with or without cause in perpetuity. <g>

Of course, the world at large retains every right not to listen to me. (The cold, heartless bastards.)
