Now . . .

. . . I have the time for this kind of stuff . . .


The difference . . .

The President is a leader of an organization, company, community, club, trade union, university or other group. The relationship between the president and the Chief Executive Officer varies, depending on the structure of the specific organization.

The chief executive officer (CEO), or just chief executive (CE), is the most senior corporate, executive, or administrative officer in charge of managing an organization – especially an independent legal entity such as a company or nonprofit institution. CEOs lead a range of organizations, including public and private corporations, non-profit organizations and even some government organizations (e.g., Crown corporations). The CEO of a corporation or company typically reports to the board of directors and is charged with maximizing the value of the entity,which may include maximizing the share price, market share, revenues, or another element. In the non-profit and government sector, CEOs typically aim at achieving outcomes related to the organization's mission, such as reducing poverty, increasing literacy, etc.

Barking . . .

. . . up the wrong tree . . .

There must be more than this
We’re better than our differences
Nothing will divide us
What we share is all that makes us good
Only if we would

Don’t let me ever forget it
There’s no such thing as
‘It’s them or it’s us’
This isn’t the way it should be
We’re still barking up the wrong tree

Seems so many motivators
Live inside us just behind the scenes
Mysterious but still just
Bold and calculating
Wild beyond your dreams
Way beyond our means

There Is A Difference. . .

. . . between EXPRESSING a point of view and DISPARAGING someone, something or some group!


(from https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/28/technology/inside-facebook-employees-political-bias.html)
". . . The post went up quietly on Facebook’s internal message board last week. Titled “We Have a Problem With Political Diversity,” it quickly took off inside the social network. . .“We claim to welcome all perspectives, but are quick to attack — often in mobs — anyone who presents a view that appears to be in opposition to left-leaning ideology.”. . . The new group has upset other Facebook employees, who said its online posts were offensive to minorities. . ."

Knowledge . . .


(from https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/bill-gates-says-trump-asked-difference-between-hiv-hpv-n875286)
". . . (Bill) Gates . . .  described two meetings in Trump Tower in which he urged the president to become a leader in science and innovation, perhaps by accelerating progress toward an HIV vaccine.
. . . he asked me if vaccines weren't a bad thing because he was considering a commission to look into ill-effects of vaccines,” Gates said. “And somebody, Robert Kennedy Jr., was advising him that vaccines were causing bad things and I said, ‘No, that is a dead end, that would be a bad thing, do not do that.". . . There were laughs and groans from the audience after Gates added: “Both times he wanted to know the difference between HIV and HPV and so I was able to explain that those are things that are rarely confused with each other.”. . . Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the most common sexually transmitted infection — affecting 79 million Americans, most in their late teens and early 20s —and can cause health problems including cancers. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) weakens the immune system destroying important cells that fight disease and infection and can lead to AIDS. There are vaccines for HPV but no known cure for HIV. . ."

A Start . . .

There must be
More than this
We're better
Than our differences

Nothing will
Divide us
What we share is
All that makes us good

Don't let me
Ever forget it
There's no such thing
As "its them or its us"

This isn't the way it should be
I'm learning it's all up to me

MORE. . .

. . . PERFECT!!. . .
(from John Adams by David McCullough)
". . . Of the potentially divisive threats to "the more perfect union," non surpassed slavery. The slave population, too, had burgeoned to nearly 700,000 men, women, and children who had no freedom whatever. There were slaves still in every state but one-only Massachusetts had eliminated slavery thus far-but with the overwhelming majority of slaves, full 500,000 centered in Maryland, Virginia, and the Carolinas, the difference between North and South was if anything greater than ever. . .

The Difference . . .

. . . between the two . .



(from https://mikethemadbiologist.com/2015/07/14/remembering-history-versus-honoring-it/)
As Neo-Confederates continue to defend the American Swastika, they keep talking about ‘remembering history.’ But there’s a difference between remembering what happened versus celebrating it. . . Listening to them, one would think a statue of Robert E. Lee or a high-flying Confederate flag is similar to Yad Va’Shem or the Toul Sleng Museum. They’re not. The former celebrate a spirited defense of what was a massive labor camp governed by an deliberately calibrated regime of torture and terror. . . It’s fine to remember history–all of it. But that’s very different from celebrating it.

Wisdom . . .


(from http://www.notable-quotes.com/w/wisdom_quotes.html)
Knowledge is flour, but wisdom is bread.
Austin O'Malley, Keystones of Thought


The difference between a wise and foolish man is this--the former sees much, thinks much, and speaks little; but the latter speaks more than he either sees or thinks.
William Scott Downey, Proverbs


An ignorant man is always able to say yes or no immediately to any proposition. To a wise man, comparatively few things can be propounded which do not require a response with qualifications, with discriminations, with proportion.
Horace Mann, Thoughts


There is a wisdom of the Head, and ... there is a wisdom of the Heart.
Charles Dickens, Hard Times


Let men be wise by instinct if they can, but when this fails be wise by good advice.
Sophicles, Antigone


Wisdom is not communicable. The wisdom which a wise man tries to communicate always sounds foolish.... Knowledge can be communicated, but not wisdom. One can find it, live it, do wonders through it, but one cannot communicate and teach it.
Hermann Hesse, Siddhartha


Wisdom is the daughter of experience.
Leonardo Da Vinci, Thoughts on Art and Life


Wisdom comes only through suffering.
Aeschylus, Agamemnon


Be very slow to believe that you are wiser than all others; it is a fatal but common error.
Charles Caleb Coltron, Lacon


An intelligent man believes only half of what he hears, a wise man knows which half.
Evan Esar, 20,000 Quips & Quotes


Wisdom is a treasure, the key whereof is never lost.
Edward Counsel, Maxims


Wisdom is the perception of the unimportance of the things we call great, and of the importance of the things we call small.
Charles Edward Jerningham, The Maxims of Marmaduke
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Wisdom

Bucket . . .

. . .  list . . .


. . . I have many times felt an aversion to certain popular buzzwords, jargon, lingo. . . whatever you want to call it.  As an adolescent I always thought the words 'girlfriend' and 'boyfriend' carried a demeaning or minimalizing connotation;  as in "you and your little girlfriend."  One of my latest semantic pet peeves is the term 'bucket list.'  I understand its meaning. I appreciate the humor in it. I just don't really like.  And I do not have one.  Other words suffice very well, thank you. . . words like 'goal', 'objective', 'desire', 'need' or 'WANT' . . .


. . . and right now I really, really WANT. . .


. . . the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

Unresolved, in fact . . .


Conclusions by both the FBI and NTSB are suspicious, at best, with regard to what really happened.
Some convincing evidence does exist but to date, no one has been held accountable for what appears to be an assassination.

 (from American Assassination; The Strange Death of Senator Paul Wellstone by Four Arrows and Jim Fetzer)
 ". . . Once again, Wellstone seems to have been a nemesis for big business.  However, Wellstone posed an even more significant and costly threat to corporate profit-making interests. He tried to enable the 2002 defense appropriations bill to bar corporate tax dodgers from being eligible for defense department contracts.  Additionally, he successfully amended the Homeland Security bill to bar those companies from getting contracts with the new "Department of Homeland Security." Both amendments passed on the Senate floor by voice votes.

After the November election - and after Paul Wellstone's tragic death - the final version of the homeland security bill gutted the Wellstone amendment. His bills were obliterated by enough waivers to assure that corporate lobby groups would indeed land the billion-dollar defense contracts we have now seen, especially in Iraq.  Similarly, a mental health reform Wellstone had championed, which would have required insurance companies to provide mental health coverage on a par with physical health coverage if their policies cover both, has been successfully blocked, one more indication that the loss of "the conscience of the Senate" continues to make a difference. . ."

The Difference. . .

. . . between. . .



. . . self-confidence and egotism is very fine.  Self-confidence is, in truth, ego but with some restraint whereas egotism is demonstrated externally.

There is no better illustration of this difference than that of musicians.  And adding insult to injury is the musician who possesses egotism in an amount disproportionate to their actual talent.
