.... the idea of divinity. He doesn't even miss or desire God. No thanks, I'll find my own way around the labyrinth. Without divinity there can be no presumed code of conduct for human beings, nor any explanation of life's meaning. We are simply thrown into this world and the outcome is death, pure and simple. There is only life before and nothing beyond. And yet, this absence of explanation is not, in itself, the idea of the Absurd. "What is absurd is the confrontation between the sense of the irrational and the overwhelming desire for clarity which resounds in the depths of man."

.... enjoy playing when their owners are participating in the game. Contrary to popular opinion, cats can be trained. Using rewards and punishments, just like with a dog, a cat can be trained to avoid unwanted behavior or perform tricks. Cats will even fetch or go for walks on a leash! “Cats – at any age – can be trained to walk on leashes if the proper steps are taken. It could take a few days to perhaps a week, to train a cat, depending on the personality of the cat and how often the owners try the lessons. Don't expect to take your cat for a walk around the block like you can with dogs," says Dr. Beaver. "Generally, cats have an inn .....

.... and glance at the rich and famous. They are nothing but the minority, look at what is surrounding you. Go ahead and take a walk down an inner city street if you dare, where the homeless sprawl across sidewalks and children roam the streets like wild dogs. The real world is lying right under there feet. We are starting to believe that the poor will always be with us, its something we must learn to live with. So we build more prisons and hire more police to protect us from the underclass. Unfortunately we forgot to ask ourselves a very important question, is that the way to cooperate with the poor? It is not there fault that they were born penni .....

.... of gifts you'll unwrap on Christmas morning. Let's look at a few examples. The Necessity Gift The necessity gift is one that always seems like a really great idea to your mother or grandmother, but which is invariably a big yawn to unwrap. Let's be realistic, how excited is anybody likely to get over a dozen pairs of matching socks, a hairbrush, winter gloves or underwear? Slipper Sox, new sheet sets and toothbrushes also qualify. After unwrapping such a gift, a person is likely to exclaim: "Gosh, you shouldn't have!" And mean it. The Token Gift The Token Gift might be received from almost anyone.
