    I swear that my friend Tim is a good man, a moral man, a very smart, single, and honest man and that he has a high net worth. And that a good woman would be lucky to have him. If he was a scoundrel I would say so.

    Ok? I promise.

    Honestly, we pity those of you who seek security and predictability rather than innovation, adventure an conquest.

    You are mere mortals. And we are mere mortals who challenge the gods.

    (While I am thinking about fashion)

    A friend asked me today to write about buying and wearing suits.

    As I said in my last post, I realized that NY had lost touch and become an insular and irrelevant microcosm.

    So since most fashion literature comes from NY, I have been working on a long article of corrected do’s and dont’s that launder NY’s anti masculinism (effeminacy) from fashion advice.

    To do this requires that I make general statements about formal, business, smart casual as well as casual, working class and proletarian wear. Thus takes some effort.

    The reason being that our physical interaction with the physical world is dependent upon our class. Or more simply stated our clothes reflect our needs for physical movement.

    If you drive a jaguar from you attached garage to an underground office park, and walk fifty feet on washed pavement, enter an elevator and exit into a carpeted floor walked upon by identical people then italian shoes and fine woolen slacks carry no wear. Someone who walks five blocks to a bus, five more to work at home depot has different needs.

    Most of us are in the middle if that spectrum and increasingly that arena of wool slacks is dying off.

    Clothes are class uniforms.

    They can help or hurt you.

    And the days if easy employment and dressing to rebel are over outside of the proletarians.

    Rebellion is a luxury of wealth. The century of “easy” is over I think.

    (It is so much easier to write in Ukraine. No television. No distractions. Nothing else to do but work. I was in the states two weeks and could hardly do anything. I am in Ukraine one day and I do good work.)

    LITTLE LUXURIES

    Overwhelming explosion of leafy green – everywhere.

    Line-drying your clothes in the sun – just to get that wonderful smell.

    Listening to the crickets, grasshoppers, and birds.

    A garden that needs cutting back rather than fertilizer.

    The difference in temperature between the sun porch at 120 degrees, and the shade at 60.

    Seeing the first flowers change in response to the first cool night.

    Bare feet on a freshly mown lawn.

    Living life at human scale.

    You see that last bit?

    That’s the whole of it.

    We don’t need to increase productivity.

    We need to decrease it.

    There isn’t any need for it.

    Unemployment is not a problem.

    It’s only that we don’t pay people,

    For constructing the social order:

    Property rights, and the commons.

    Human Scale.

    We did not understand what we were doing.

    We can end the century of mysticism.

    Life and family are too beautiful to rush through.

    THANKS FOR MY FRIENDS

    Just have had some wonderful messages from friends over the past few days, and I thank god every day for both the extra time I seem to have been gifted, and the wonderful people I get to share this planet with – particularly in the liberty movement.

    Love you all.

    Thanks again.
