* I wonder if I'm anemic - or something worse.
* I always imagine the worst.
* Somehow I feel like I deserve it when things go wrong.
* Conversely, I get really angsty when things go right, like there's that Stark Fist of Removal that the Subgeniuses go on about, just right there, to punish me for enjoying things.

* Most of us - yes, me, too - like to imagine we act rationally, but we are a mess of contractions, lies and obfuscation.
* I'm tired of the lies told by politicians.
* Then again, they are merely telling us what they think we want to hear, and we are a fickle electorate, swept about by the chemicals in our brains.
* I am surprised that someone who was as formidable a candidate as was the now-POTUS BHO is so ineffective as a leader.
* I think I would be a terrible leader.
