10:53 a.m. - 2005-02-23 If full fledged gambling isn't legal, then people frequent these places. If those places aren't legal, they go to Dave and Busters and play Skee Ball, I guess. If that's not available they play that game that they have in bars, where you, like, find the hidden flowers in a picture of a naked lady or some crap. If that's not available...people drink a lot. Or have an affair. Or watch a lot of television. I think most people spend a lot of time trying really hard not to feel so bad by dulling the senses and numbing the brain...escape, escape, escape. It's the rare person who get up in the morning and decides that they not only are going to not seek after ways to dodge the pain that comes with living, but rather, to embrace the good, fight off the bad on behalf of themselves and others, and truly live in the moment instead of running from it. Is this too much for a pre-noon blog entry? |
