I have decided that Freerepublic is just not the place to facilitate change for the better.

I don't know how many times I've tried to tell you that.

Do you?

[FreedominJesusChrist]

No, but I see that you are a fan of Thoreau, who was an insufferable poet and writer.

If Thoreau really wished to live a full life, why did he go to live by himself in a $29 shack by a pond? Why didn't he ever get married, have a steady job, or pay his poll tax? The man was looney and a wannabe Emerson.

Seriously...are those your own personal pictures from visiting Walden Pond?

Let me guess...you are a big fan of Walt Whitman too?

[FreedominJesusChrist]

You must live over by Walden Pond or something.

I guess I just don't like his poetry because I don't agree with Transcendentalism.
