HUMANITAS MAXIMUS ARTICLES

You should read the fine print which follows first...

*Note to my Readers About Viewing Posts: This blog is formatted in such a manner as to cut off certain of the larger graphics that appear in the postings -- especially when those postings have been excerpted from wider-screen or higher-resolution media. Please be patient with me while I work within Google's somewhat stifling Blogger framework. If some graphics are cut off, you might just left-click on them to see if you can get an original source screen with the full graphic shown -- regrettably, this only works some of the time. In the event that any of the wording is cut off, you might change your screen magnification down from 100% to 75%. But don't worry -- the copy very seldom gets cut off. In some cases, if the article has been re-posted from another source (and you sadly can almost never tell you might try clicking on the article title, to get redirected to the original source posting, which will generally be full-sized and easy to read. No matter what...Please don't run out to the local drugstore in the rain and buy some of those overpriced non-prescription "reading glasses" that will make you look like either 1) a Senator in a subcommittee proceeding, or like 2) a substitute teacher from the early 1060's.

And now, intrepid explorers...TO INFINITY! AND BEYOND!

EXTREMES

Dear Friends:

Extremes capture the crowd. Whether very good or excruciatingly bad, extremes attract attention...even, on occasion, a cult following. The "normal" is unremarkable, unmemorable, unnoteworthy -- yet, people call for normalcy in others around them. This is another example of how inherently conflictory and hypocritical our species (yours, anyway) tends to be.

Being average is miserable. Being middle-class is becoming extinct.

Forget the Normal Distribution or the Bell Curve. Go to either the extreme left or the extreme right for action. Stay in the middle and be ignored. And, rather sadly, any "rational" adult will tell you to stay in the "middle of the road". It's paradoxical -- If you stay in the middle of the road, you'll get run over by a driver in a hurry to get to a movie before it starts.

For the purposes of illustration, watch the video below for several minutes, and witness the path of an "average" person's life. Go ahead. Press the START button.




Faithfully,

Douglas Castle
