Once someone has a belief (leave religion out of this) regardless how they obtained that belief and you know that the belief is pure BS, that individual has a completely closed mind to any factual data that opposes that belief. Nothing can penetrate that cement barrier in the frontal cortex.

Somehow, it is also related to a drug addict or alcoholic – they have to reach a desperate or significant emotional event in order for themselves to realize the truth.

I don’t have any more grievances. I just consider it one big, uber fucked up reality show put here for my entertainment. My job as an unwilling participant is to avoid as much of it as possible. I just finished the last of the pre-Christmas outings and except for a visit to my friends place tomorrow or Friday, I don’t have to interact with the shit show until next year. It’s all the Christmas present I need! To top it off we’ve had a steady supply of snow flakes for a week now and it’s cold enough that it’s not turning to sloppy mush. Every tree branch is covered with snow. Shoveling snow in the dead of night with no other sounds is amazing and for that short hour or two everything is right with the world.

I remember troweling a concrete floor in shorts and a t-shirt the day after Christmas about 22 years ago. Me and the boss smoked a bowl of Humbolt County weed and laid down the smoothest hand troweled floor you ever saw.
