"Whoever would be a teacher of men let him begin by teaching himself before teaching others; and let him teach by example before teaching by word. For he who teaches himself and rectifies his own ways is more deserving of respect and reverence than he who would teach others and rectify their ways."

There has grown in the minds of certain groups in this country the idea that just because a man or corporation has made a profit out of the public for a number of years, the government and the courts are charged with guaranteeing such profit in the future, even in the face of changing circumstances and contrary to public interest. This strange doctrine is supported by neither statue or common law. Neither corporations or individuals have the right to come into court and ask that the clock of history be stopped, or turned back.

Don't you hate when you're writing a tune, and you want to put a D throw after something, and that makes you get stuck in composing any further. Maybe I have a passion for D throws. I play a light throw and used to love the way I play them, now... I kinda have a hunkerin to play a heavy through. I have even been known to throw one in now and then when nobody is listening.
