Irreverence

Reflecting lasd night on the candy of my childhood with some friends - Big League Chew, cigarette gum that puffed, pixie sticks...they were really encouraging the use of illicit products to kids. But guess what? I miss those days. Of course these were bad messages, but we all knew they were bad messages and didn't care so much. Because people took things less seriously.

Strikes me that on the verge of 2019 we all might do better to regain a little more of the cosmic insignificance of it all and relax a bit more.

UPDATE: I saw Big League Chew in a convenience store driving from Yosemite to LA. There is hope after all!
