JonR: actually... no. i CAN'T understand! lol
i don't know the man. never met him, probably never will. sometimes he seems like the right-wing's best friend, and then he flips and goes on an uber-liberal rant.
sometimes he goes on and on about acid trips and hunter s. thompson. sometimes he'll post something and get the hardcore conservatives saying "hell, yes!"
so, nope. i don't understand. if he wants to explain himself, he can and will. if he wants to keep his mysteries a secret, he can and will.
i must say this, though -- no matter what the subject, and no matter what his apparent stance, i ALWAYS get something out of his posts. if nothing else, they make me question my own thoughts, views and beliefs. and that, imo, is always a good thing.
what's odd, though, is that even if he's on one side and i'm on the other by far, even he and i could agree that fuente makes a good cigar and painting can be amazing.
