Søren Kierkegaard on the Importance of Walking
“Above all, do not lose your desire to walk. Everyday, I walk myself into a state of well-being & walk away from every illness. I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it. But by sitting still, & the more one sits still, the closer one comes to feeling ill. Thus if one just keeps on walking, everything will be all right.”

Somewhere in there Ray Allen got me hooked on golf, and he'd tell you I'm still no good at it, though I spend a lot of my down time on it.
Sharing sports takes is newer. NBA, WNBA, college, some football and baseball when it grabs me. No plan, nothing to sell. I just like talking good ball with good people.
Glad you're here. And if you read this whole thing and didn't keep scrolling, I think we'll get along.
Appreciate y'all.
We have the technology and the policy roadmap to replace fossil fuels with green energy extremely rapidly.
The only thing stopping us is a handful of billionaires getting rich while our world burns.
