HEY YOU!  READ SOME OF THE DAMN ESSAYS!
Truth and Treason
Inside the heart of each and every one of us is a longing to be understood by someone who really cares -- Rev. Ed Hird
You come to love not by finding the perfect person but by seeing an imperfect person perfectly -- Sam Keen
Love is an act of endless forgiveness -- Ustinov
To love the love that loves to love...... -- Van Morrison
Most of the time, I'm halfway content/ most of the time, I know exactly where it went/ I don't cheat on myself, I don't run and hide/ Hide from the feelings that are buried inside/ I don't compromise and I don't pretend/ I don't even care if I ever see her again/ Most of the time.... -- Bob Dylan
"Many of us spend our whole lives running from Feeling, with the mistaken belief that we cannot bear the pain.  But we have already borne the pain.  What we have not done is feel all that we are beyond that pain."  Kahlil Gibran
Hey, thanks to the people who've been writing in. More radical essays soon.  Unfortunately, new cartoons must wait until I solve my graphics problems and until I have the stomach to laugh at Bush again.
"There are two types of people who will tell you that you cannot make a difference in this world:  Those who are afraid to try themselves, and those who are afraid that you will succeed."   Ray Goforth
