Science or art?




I haven't gotten to doing a lot lately.  Must be the summertime blues.  OK, I will pull myself up by my bootstraps and get going.  Who was it that said "start something, that's the hardest part?"

R. Crumb, cartoonist of "Keep on Trucking" fame, said:  "I work in erratic spurts. Getting started is like getting a rocket off the ground. You need the most energy and the most push to get started; once you're up there and you're going, then it's easier to keep going. Sit down and pick up where you left off, you know. Getting going is always tough."  It was his birthday yesterday, (1943).

Boy do I know what he means!  Inertia.  Science says a body in motion tends to stay in motion, a body at rest tends to stay at rest! I didn't need to study physics to know whichever law of motion that is!


Someone took me up on my offer and picked all the basil off my very abundant plant.  I cut it back and maybe there will be some more...or will it turn bitter?
