What ever happened to "ET?"
For me, ET represents childhood innosence. ET was a blockbuster movie made in the 1980s. If you never watched it, asked your parents. When I think of ET, I think of having a sense of wonder and imagination. ET made me think and dream at a young age but over time, those crazy little dreams seem to come and go. ET never left us because he was always there. It was us or more specifically, "I" who let him fly away, never to phone home again.
Today, I will now begin the journey of ET to come home, to be with me and to make me think and dream again. This journey will begin with one word, "Yes." I choose to accept that only the best is in store for my life and my family. I say, "Yes to ET." My mind will never forget ET's magical presence and more importantly, the way he made me feel. Seeing is believing and today, I cannot accept that ET ever left but I can accept that he is back home.

Why don't people change?
People don't change because they are hardwired to remain the same. We love status quo especially when it is comfortable. And, when status quo is not comfortable, we relish in our ability to whine, complain and otherwise take zero action. We make every excuse in the book and have become most awesome at a new terminology called, "yeabutter." Yeabutter means, "Yea, but..." and is the single most useless mental map that humans have ever created. We don't change because we are the architect of "yeabutter", which consistently ensures we stay on a track that is meaningless, inescapable and purely built on notions of robotic happenstance.

People ask a lot of questions. My goal with this Blog is have lots of people ask lots of questions that don't have easy answers. Maybe we'll learn something new or maybe we'll crash and burn. Either way, when we get to a 1,000,000 Answers, that will be pretty cool.
I invite the most maddening, philosophical, politically charged, wierdest, wackest questions possible. Your definition of a "different" question might be far from my definition but who cares, maybe we'll find common ground or simply just piss each other off. Again, either way, it's okay because we live in a coutry where are freedoms are challenged daily and at least for now, it don't cost nuthin', so come on in...1,000,000 Answers begins now.
