Too much risk aversion is crippling.
Plan to write your memoirs. Make sure you have memoirs worth writing, but make sure you live to write them. Be excellent to each other. And party on, dudes.

"Too much risk aversion is crippling."
Nothing makes better memoirs, than stories about when you rolled that drunk, had sex with dolphin/shark, or dumped the hooker's body in the public water supply.

Those are some good philosophies!
"All that it takes for evil to succeed in the world is that good men do nothing." is a favorite of mine! I can't remember who said it first... |

Find what you want to do in life, then do it.
Don't stress the details.

The more you are sure of something the more likely it is that you are wrong. Of that you can be sure.

Science is answers that must always be questioned.
Philosophy is questions that may never be answered. Religion is answers that must never be questioned. Politics is answers that lobbyists pay for.

When I begin to think there isn't a heaven I listen to music and change my mind.
