Christ appeared alive on several occasions after the cataclysmic events of that first Easter.
Unless we make Christmas an occasion to share our blessings all the snow in Alaska won't make it 'white'.
In Hollywood the women are all peaches. It makes one long for an apple occasionally.
We occasionally stumble over the truth but most of us pick ourselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened.
I currently use Ubuntu Linux on a standalone laptop - it has no Internet connection. I occasionally carry flash memory drives between this machine and the Macs that I use for network surfing and graphics but I trust my family jewels only to Linux.
Occasionally I find a travel book that is both illuminating and entertaining where vivid writing and research replace self-indulgence and sloppy prose.
I really enjoy what I do and who I'm with and where I am. Having said that I'm not really a person of habit because what I do in my job is travel around the world and play concerts to people and occasionally do very weird things.
Man will occasionally stumble over the truth but most of the time he will pick himself up and continue on.
Standing beneath the white light of an Apple store is like standing on a Stanley Kubrick movie set. His '2001: A Space Odyssey' predicted Jobs and a future where technology was our friend. Kubrick of course didn't like what he saw. And occasionally I have my doubts.

There's immense fun to be had as long as you can sort of sneak it past DC. I have been told on occasion that I need to have more respect for these characters.
There are only two occasions when Americans respect privacy especially in Presidents. Those are prayer and fishing.
Those among them that have not received our religion do not fright any from it and use none ill that goes over to it so that all the while I was there one man was only punished on this occasion.
I think you can be cynical about religion on occasion and certainly skeptical about the degree to which some people use religion to manipulate other people.
On several occasions I discussed with Bill Clinton the subject of inquiries by the media about our relationship. He told me to continue to deny our relationship that if we would stick together everything would be okay.
Then of course there are those sad occasions when a poet or a writer has not grown and one has to let them go because they're just not making headway. But we have a very clear personal relationship with the authors.
