We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.
We used knouts on unruly peasants. Is nothing new.

I've done the ropes at the gym.
It does almost kill you. I'm in pretty good shape, and after 30 seconds, my heart is racing and I'm breaking out in a sweat. Going for a minute is a killer.
