Dere's sadness in the world, sure. But I choose to see the joy. The miracle is that we live. The responsibility of living is that we try to make the world a little better. Dirge, he don't see dat. Best he figures, I cry, I bury myself so deep in grief I become dead myself. Ain't dat easy, mon brave. I love these people. I love Rogue. I choose t'honor their lives an' what dey mean t' me wit' a celebration. My soul won't ever be lost, Dirge - because now an' always, I choose TO LAUGH!Thanks to The X-Axis, without whom these inspiring words might have been lost.

Inspiring Words
Some of you might be a little down, what with conservative triumphalism and the possibility that Alberto Gonzales might be our next Attorney General.
