This morning, I saw with great sadness a little bit of the NBC TODAY show.
All four hosts were on, and the subject was "What makes you happy?"
The "wisdom" NBC offered viewers came from three thinker-philosophers of the past. Whom did Matt Lauer and Company recommend for advice on how to be happy?
Jean-Paul Sartre. Friedrich Nietzsche. Ralph Waldo Emerson.
More Thomas Reid, less Nietzsche.
LOL!! Isn’t Kierkegaard considered an existentialist? He was at least a Christian, I think....though he did have a lot of misery, he still kept his faith and hope.
I thought it was Fear that sang that...

I LOVE LOUISA (Howard Dietz / Arthur Schwartz) Fred Astaire
How I love a glass of beer, More beer!
Beer goes very good with beer, More beer!
When I’m drinking beer I’m thinking, Ach! Life is beer.
But there’s someone I love even more than beer.
I love Louisa, Louisa loves me. When we rode on the merry-go-round, I kissed Louisa, and then Louisa, Louisa kissed me.
