My sister’s dog had been deaf and blind for
years. When she started to suffer painful tumors, it was time to put her down.
As I explained this to my seven-year-old son, he asked if Jazzy would go to
heaven. I said I thought she would, and that in dog heaven, she would be
healthy again and able to do her favorite thing: chase squirrels.

Jacob thought about that for a minute, then said, “So dog heaven must be
the same as squirrel hell.”

The scene: The “F” train of the
subway line in New York City.

I was commuting from the Borough of Queens to my job in Manhattan. I’d finished
reading the morning paper and was saving it to bring to friends on the job. How
do you save a newspaper on the subway? You sit on it.

A new commuter came in, saw the newspaper under my rear, and asked the second
most stupid question I’ve ever heard (someday I may tell of the first):
“Are you reading that paper?”

I stood up, turned the page, sat down on the paper, and answered,
“Yes.”

When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.

— Jimi Hendrix

[Editor’s observation] It’s just amazing to think how close Janis & Jimi were to the truth and still missed it. They left out the one thing – rather, person – that would put everything into focus & make sense of this thing we call life: Jesus.
