So, questions to this point:
As I have said before- Answer any, all, or none, as you like, at any point. Or even make up your own question and answer it, or throw it at me. 
What scares me as I learn more... is always, how much I have to learn. I'm left wondering at what point I know enough to be worthwhile. I'm not there yet.
Meanwhile...
Question for today: what's the one greatest bit of wisdom you can offer me?

haha, your entries always set me thinking 
A figure from "history" would have to be your president I'm afraid. So recent history. September 11th. Although the atacks were undescribibly awful and evil, I did not then support his war on terror and to this day still do not. I believe the world has become an unsafe place to live underlined by his actions following that dreadful event. The west as a whole should have played a role in setting a good example as far as dialogue goes, not bombing aimlessly left and right. 
I hope I don't hurt your or any of the readers feelings. If so sorry, it's just what I believe. I just knew there was no weapons of mass destruction in Irak for example, had many arguments with my then bf over it. He was all "yeah bomb them". I am happy that sadam is no longer in power but it "scares" me what might come to power now. The turmoil in that whole region is almost out of control. I believe stronly that education and showing people (for example their women) how to emancipate and get better lives for themselves is better that reinforcing it from the outside with violence. Change must come from within. I agree this is a long road, but look so many years down the line...we haven't gotten much further and so many lives on all sides have been lost in the process 
My piece of wisdom is one I've quoted often and love, Mathew Flickstein;
Nothing comes to stay, everything comes to pass

A figure from history? Hmmm... Shakespeare!
I would... um... rewrite Romeo and Juliet... and call it... Romeo and Rosaline* and Juliet
Best piece of wisdom? Umm... treat every single problem as a completely new situation. Don't assume, don't use what you did "last time", always strip it down to the basics and don't have rules for how to deal with things. Except for the rule of not having rules.
Was that clear as mud?
*Which if I remember correctly was in fact Romeo's first love.

Hmmm... a box. I'm guessing it's computer components from one of the contests for which I signed up. Top of the line video card for sure, maybe even two of them for crossfire/SLI. There might be a motherboard, PSU, and other stuff, as well.
I'm at a loss on the figure from history thing at the moment. I may try to revisit that one.
Good to hear Fearless is doing okay.
