On friends, cutlery, and taking on Life

My most awesome frentor just paid me this cherished compliment:

"Icarus, my lass, when Life said 'I challenge you to a knife fight,' your opening volley was to hurl the kitchen cutlery drawer, and your follow-through was a broadsword."

Damn right.  :)

I'm a fighter. I think long and hard about things, then I decide what I think is right (preferably after cutting away all the stupid), then I fight for it. I fight to make the world a better, happier, more loving - and above all SMARTER - place.

(Alas, that doesn't mean I'm any good at it, but it's important to keep making the effort! :-)
