All of humanity's problems stem from man's inability to sit quietly in a room alone.
— Blaise Pascal, Pensées

Common Sense Ain’t Common

I don’t know why I came here tonight
I got this feeling that something ain’t right…
— Gerry Rafferty

It’s allegedly inadvisable to be a centrist. In certain circles, it’s not safe.

The pendulum swings left… then right… then back again.

Every swing discards timeless principles of common sense and wisdom accumulated over centuries of human experience.

This is a lonely outpost where one individual attempts to apply those principles hoping to provide some modicum of psychological and cognitive stability.

This ain’t easy. It’s mighty rough.

Nevertheless… here we are.
