    Dear Diary,

    Casey here again in Blue State Hell. How I miss baseball . . . the Authority has tried to amuse me by replaying all 11 games of the 1980 and 2008 World Series, but it’s not the same as watching the Authority’s team throw the third season in a row straight into the litter box. Meanwhile I compensate by climbing up and down the kitchen foul pole, throwing up hairballs in the Other Cat’s dugout, and stealing signs from the dog next door when his Authority takes him out for a walk.

    The local mayor has not only put the city on lockdown but has decreed that it is now illegal to go outside without a “face covering.” I suggested that my Authority wear a catcher’s mask for trips to the supermarket, but as the mayor has even less of a sense of humor than a major league umpire, the John Wayne bandanna will have to do for now.

    At least I don’t have to worry about Mr. Met bringing the New York bug to my home base. Casey, out.

Who Am I? by Carl Sandburg


My head knocks against the stars.

My feet are on the hilltops.

My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of
universal life.

Down in the sounding foam of primal things I
reach my hands and play with pebbles of
destiny.

I have been to hell and back many times.

I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.

I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.

I know the passionate seizure of beauty

And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs
reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive
 in the universe.

Duty, Beauty, Liberty, Country, Honor, Family, Faith — Plus a few simple easy to follow rules for guys

The Vault

Take It Where You Find It

Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it

Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child

Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it

[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America

And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream

Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it

[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over

I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
