Kenneth, my friend...

Good prose is nutrition for the mind. Thank you for your thoughtful entry.

I started this thread somewhat out of the frustration I often feel when dealing with non"deep thought" souls who have sold out to the devils of commerce (those who have lost all sense of rational discussion).

Thanks to all of you who have, so far, managed to restore in me hope for the humankind on SI.

Keep posting, my fine comrades, keep posting. For who knows the fruit of optimism we may reap from this seedling of truth.

Dexx

My work keeps me from "braking out" and I have learned I better
treasure something before it's too late.
For me, the time is now. Everybody is different, and
at the Apple Tree for dinner, last night, even my father was
complaining about all this "DOT COM stuff" he was hearing
about in TV commercials. My thought is, he has derived satisfaction
from his actions most admirably. and does not need what I do.
I suffer the lack of good people, doing everything
on my own. But look at how I am helped, as you did
with the poetry you put in the former post.

All Reading, must cherish and appreciate the wonderful gift
this generation has been given and endeavor to allow it
to be useful. Through this gift, (well; you know we all had
to buy the computers) The name Kenneth Kirk
has good meaning.

Ken, I am forgetful at times, especially with names,
but will remember well in the future if you remind me
of this "smile incident", which is special to me.

That smile traveled many miles I imagine, but has come
home to rest, on this side, rather deeply.

You, Sir, are a Gentleman.
