Give me the liberty to know, to utter, and to argue freely according to conscience, above all liberties.

Today's Tao (Chapter 50):

Men flow into life, and ebb into death.

Some are filled with life;
Some are empty with death;
Some hold fast to life, and thereby perish,
For life is an abstraction.

Those who are filled with life
Need not fear tigers and rhinos in the wilds,
Nor wear armour and shields in battle;
The rhinoceros finds no place in them for its horn,
The tiger no place for its claw,
The soldier no place for a weapon,
For death finds no place in them.

Newman is salad King!

Politics
In an Op-Ed in the New York Times, Paul Newman announces that, because of Fox's "noble example for standing firm against whatever", he is suing the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for it's "decency and respectability" that has "unfairly rubbed off on his movie character", diluting the character's image.
The final paragraph of his Op-Ed is a gem:
A coalition of the willing . i.e., the Bratwurst Asphalt Company and the Ypsilanti Hot Dog and Bean Shop has been pushed forward and is prepared to label its products "fair and balanced," knowing that Fox News will sue and that its newscasters will be so tied up with subpoenas they will only be able to broadcast from the courtroom, where they will be seen tearing their hair and whining, looking anything but fair and balanced, which would certainly be jolly good sport all around.
