Just as I hit send I saw that I had written "role" rather than the intended "roll!" My freak'n unconscious mind knew it and went right to the word as I hit send. I wish I could speed up that process between my limited conscious attention and my unconscious mind. I've got it down now so that I remember the stuff I have forgotten just as I leave my apartment complex for a gig. It is an acceptable lag time and doesn't eat up too much time. Maybe I should sit down a moment before I go and give my unconscious mind a chance to catch up? So I might as well make use of the term "role" since perhaps my unconscious mind preferred it. You have been on a good roll with your role of both furthering conversations and making us laugh. At MIU Robert Winquiest started a club he named the Socrates club where we met to discuss ideas. But if anyone got boring we could point our fingers and shout "Liar!" The first principle of wisdom was that it was entertaining. Nice work Socrates, keep on posting! >
