In Days of Old When Knights Were Bold

For example Sir Edmund Hillary, who climbed Mount Everest, no east feat, nor easy on the feet.

There was a lot more to people. Many people were “to” (headed for, intent on) something beyond themselves.

After Joe Biden got many millions of votes to make him President of USA, the no-brain fashion became all the vogue. People learned to drool on themselves and say imbecile things to show that they too had no brain.

Air heads was as far as people went. Some tried hard vacuum inside their skulls, but after some grisly skull collapses, people became satisfied with just plain air, at normal pressure, inside their heads.

Many people in the past would have been suitable for 5 act operas to be written and performed to tell the story of their lives. Emily comes to mind. Such courage. Such grace under pressure. Noether was the mathematician’s mathematician, like Feynman was the physicist’s physicist, and like J.S. Bach was the composer’s composer.

Anyhow we have gone from something to nothing and one aspires to the day when people will be something to them again, and be to (intending, leaning toward) something (not just imbecile drooling, Biden style).

Oh, now you’re thinking to write me an unkind remark …. but then …. you think better of it, and decide not to. You like reading my posts (not this one, I know), and you want to see more in future. So, you abjure.

Good on ya.
