Quote of the day–Edward Abbey

May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds.


Edward Abbey
(1927 – 1989)
[For some reason this struck me as perhaps describing our political and economic future. Dangerous but yet full of opportunity.


But then on a physical front I’m suspicious that our universe is actually a black hole with an event horizon several billion light years across and we are rushing toward the singularity at the speed of light on the time axis. So, in the long run, it doesn’t matter even if we do get off this planet and out of the solar system everything we know will be ripped apart down to the sub atomic particle level eventually anyway.


Have a nice day.–Joe]

  1. Ahh, that actually is comforting. I knew there was a reason I’ve been preferring my nihilistic side as of late.

  2. “an event horizon several billion years across and we are rushing toward the singularity at the speed of light.” That’s all right. The event horizon is just where the hologram is stored.
