[Words of Wisdom from Epictetus]

I just finished reading the Enchiridion. As a start into Stoic philosophy, it was interesting. I have coming up soon on my reading list Marcus Aurelius' Mediations. One of the quotes that caught my interest: "Put an end once for all to this discussion of what a good man should be, and be one."

Io Saturnalia!

[The NPO- the menace and the threat]

I can't recall Pacifica demanding reps for the past.... many years. Like, seriously, please correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure you'd have to go back pre-Karma for that. And Viceroys were probably even longer before that still.

[The dragon is dead!]

I'm glad to hear that the surgery went well, Dajobo, Slayer of Dragons!

[The 'C' word]

It's good to hear that the surgeon is optimistic about your recovery. Best wishes, Dajobo!

[I Suck At Geography]

I read the world news, and look up the places I don't know the location of. Non-North American news sites are better for this.
