The upside to our ability ...

👍 Good info on the CT scan for early Lung Cancer detection and prevention. //
On January 3, 2007, I experienced multiple syncopes. I got implanted with a dual chamber Medtronic pacemaker. I had a smoke after I left the hospital. :P

That night at around 3:00 A.M. I had to poop. I nearly passed out on the head. I managed to lay down on the floor. Carmen was asleep. It was another syncope. The pacemaker kicked in and the nausea and dizziness left me.


I have not smoked since then.

There is an old saying in Spanish: "A golpes aprende el perro." The rough translation, that applies more to people than dogs, is that physical blows teach the dog, It applies 100% to me.

I too am descended from a long line of people who never learned anything the easy way, and who believed the best way to take down a wall is with one's head.

The upside to our ability to (eventually) learn, but almost exclusively by experience, is that we actually do learn. 

That is more than I can say for the 'greed is good' intellimorons destroying human society's environmental seed corn.

The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself. -- Proverbs 11:25

He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. Matt 10:37
