I had a great essay going. A classic about the defintion of Peace. Spent three hours on it.
Computer froze. On-line page problem. Had to reboot. Lost my essay.
I hate this computer and I almost hate blogging. You want Goth Girl Blog Day? You got it.
Good-bye.
P.S.: I think I'll try again with that post tomorrow night. It's worth the wait, I hope. At least for me.
Did I mention that my computer sucks?
I'm using an old version of IE (4.0) because it's more impervious to viruses (virii?). Problem is that it keeps not wanting to do what the internet wants it to do.
Mozilla and Firefox, here I come (again)!!!
Sorry. Just had to vent a little. Did I mention that my computer sucks?!
Okay, here's a bit of what I had:
You do not send a dove like Jimmy Carter to negotiate anything with a tyrant. Carter believes in the goodness of man. He is a fool.
If history, or common sense, is any clue; you send out the raven ahead of the dove.
"Trust but verified."
Deal from strength and self-interest. Not from idealism and (naive) notions of what we want Peace to be.
Yes, I've decided to try again tomorrow. I was gone but now I'm back! Woo hoo! If I'm not an optimist I'm nothing.
