“Now if I had the wings of an angel…”

By Jimmy Johnson

I thought this old A&J strip from 2007 might be appropriate, because daylight saving time ends Sunday morning. We’re going to be staring at a lot of walls in the coming months. It is true, roofs are generally prized, but walls have a more ambiguous reputation. They’re confining. They’re an impediment to understanding and to good will. They’re defensive. However, when the winter wind howls, walls are every bit as valuable as the roof. Perhaps if humans were a flying species as well as a pedestrian species, we’d be ambivalent about our roofs as well.

    Woah! I’m really digging the template/theme of this blog.
    It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s hard to get that “perfect balance” between usability and visual appeal.
    I must say you have done a fantastic job with this.
    Additionally, the blog loads super quick for me on Chrome.

    A fascinating discussion is worth comment. I do think that you ought to
    write more on this topic, it might not be a taboo matter but generally people don’t
    talk about such subjects. To the next! All the best!! asmr https://app.gumroad.com/asmr2021/p/best-asmr-online asmr

    Hello! I know this is kinda off topic nevertheless I’d
    figured I’d ask. Would you be interested in trading links or maybe guest writing a blog article or vice-versa?
    My blog addresses a lot of the same subjects as yours and I believe we could greatly benefit from each other.
    If you are interested feel free to send me an e-mail. I look
    forward to hearing from you! Fantastic blog by the way! quest bars
