(but excerpted copy to Jadene 9/21/09)

Truths purveyed by serious truth-seeker activist types whom I know you are aware of and have been following for some years now, are so self-evident to astute political observers such as myself and, seemingly, only a precious few others, yet the large body of both organized and disorganized denial and denialists seems so terribly overwhelming that this one little ultra-low-income intellect takes the most sensible-seeming position that: it being way so very far above my PAY GRADE as to NOT be worthy subject matter to anguish, angst, nor to overly stress about.  Not in any position to effect any influence upon this admittedly deplorable situation in the BODY POLITIC, by conscious choice, I try to stay in a simple enough state of mind wherein I am able to enjoy the simpler pleasures available to who, how, and where I spend 5-3/4 days out of every 6.

AND DILIGENTLY PERSEVERE IN DENYING INGRESS TO:

The stressfulness that could so-easily be assumed in negative reaction to those awfully negatively-toned truths that, I feel, are as much a threat to my sense of having a decent level of a reasonable peace-of-mind, as are their threats to the over-all peace and general welfare of a majority of the human populations of the Earth, or any other microbally-based life-form.

And, given that stress will sicken the human condition just as efficiently as most of the microbials associated with causing sicknesses, I therefore feel that it's a reasonably sensible and sane choice for a person in my situational realities to withdraw, recuse, and 'recluse' myself, and otherwise isolate myself and hunker down into as simple a life as I can get away with, remote from the stressful.

So: Ilive where and how I do, and obsess such seemingly mundane items as firewood-rendering and a turkey population that I once obsessed having a hand in populating my hereabouts with over the past decade

(dozen quail, 18 bluejays, 23 turkeys, five or six deer (2 bucks!) 1 rabbit. Dozen rats…)

and write my children.
