1. Internet porn and alcohol serve similar therapeutic purposes. Which one is worse?
2. Anything worth flipping a coin for is worth flipping a coin three or five times or any odd number of times for.
3. Anytime you have to flip a coin to make a decision, you are in a sad state.
4. Learning to live with disappointment is learning to live. As Mellencamp said, "No one said this was going to be easy." One cannot deny disappointment, but he must learn how to accept it and move forward.
5. I weighed 205 pounds at the gym today. I felt like a fat cow all day. I feel like a fat cow now. The scale has to be light.
6. I know. I am turning into a woman.
7. I have lost my identity. There were guys in the gym throwing up a little weight. I could neither match their weight nor their intensity. But I do not feel different. Yeats has a poem about this, about how the face we see in the mirror is the same face we saw as a kid, about how we perceive ourselves today the same as we do when we were seventeen.

I think there is something telling in #2. If you flip coin once and don't like the outcome maybe you shouldn't have flipped a coin?
GGM,
I read that last sentence as a challenge or doubt that I can maintain.
Either one does not bother me. Because we will see, and I have doubt too.
