Beautiful dreamer.... waken to be.... moonlight and starlight are waiting for thee.... sounds of the rude world.... heard by the day.... lulled by the starlight.... have all passed away.

I'm sure you remember the lyrics. But the music's getting drowned out by the buzzes.
Howsoever, Hitler had the compassion to just use the little buzzers on furriners, back when WWII was all the rage.... whereas in these compassionate times.... while those responsible debate the biggggg issues of
your lives and
your deaths....
I consider myself fortunate not to buzzed outa here.
Sleep is sooooo wonderful,
Who woke ME up?
Authors Bio:I have a law degree (Stanford, 66') but have never practiced. Instead, from 1967 through 1977, I tried to contribute to the revolution in America. As unsuccessful as everyone else over that decade, in 1978 I went to work for the U.S. Forest Service in San Francisco as a Clerk-Typist, GS-4. I was active in the USFS's union for several years, including a brief stint as editor of The Forest Service Monitor, the nationwide voice of the Forest Service in the National Federation of Federal Employees. Howsoever, I now believe my most important contribution while editor of the F.S.M. was bringing to the attention of F.S. employees the fact that the Black-Footed Ferret was not extinct; one had been found in 1980 on a national forest in the Colorado. In 2001 I retired from the USFS after attaining the age of 60 with 23 years of service. Stanford University was evidently unimpressed with my efforts to make USFS investigative reports of tort claim incidents available to tort claimants (ie, "the public"), alleging the negligence of a F.S. employee acting in the scope of his/her duties caused their damages, under the Freedom of Information Act. Oh well. What'cha gonna do?
