Rodent Regatta

Between jury duty, trying to get a new venture launched and dealing with endless problems associated with work, posting here has been light this week. Look for us to resume writing shortly.

In the meantime, contemplate what Thoreau had to say about the ”rat race.”

The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. What is called resignation is confirmed desperation. From the desperate city you go into the desperate country, and have to console yourself with the bravery of minks and muskrats. A stereotyped but unconscious despair is concealed even under what are called the games and amusements of mankind.

Henry David Thoreau
from the Economy section of Walden
