While you're contemplating the miracle of Earth, consider how rare wood or chocolate icecream is in the universe as compared to gold or diamonds or similar structures.

Life is rare. This adds a particular irony in wearing uniforms. All the uniqueness of life has this need for uniformity layered over the top.

(These deep thoughts go haywire when you realize that IRS Tax form 1040 is therefore some kind of wonder of creation and is a rare thing in the universe)

Happy Earth day! Although I'm having a somewhat sad earth day since I've been scattering wildflower seeds and two days ago the city came though and mowed them all down. So it's less happy than usual, now the flowers are all dead.
