Three Boxes Of Liberty: August 2010

Perhaps more than you think. Imagine simple treasures, far more valuable than anything freed from an attic and featured on The Antiques Road Show. The "Three Boxes of Liberty" contain powerful tools. A legacy left behind by our founders, in the form of our Constitution, to protect us from tyranny. Tools designed to preserve a life for all Americans to be free to pursue anything that makes them happy.

For me happiness is the pursuit of a life of quiet anonymity. A life where I am unknown to those who are uninvited - you might call that privacy. Rarely does anything of value (like privacy or measurable change) become real without sacrifice, and I've little to sacrifice, except my desire for a life of quiet anonymity and my time. So, I will give those up here to create a "workshop" dedicated to the tools found in the three boxes. Please join me in blowing off the dust and putting the tools to work.

More Forgotten History - The Price Of Our Short Memories

This priceless cartoon warning from 1934 just arrived in my inbox - Thanks Dad!

Note that this was published in response to government "recovery efforts" during the last depression. Sure rings-true today - don't it!
