“To whom much is given, much is expected.”

- The Bible

“It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it.”

- Upton Sinclair

It takes more courage to reveal insecurities than to hide them, more strength to relate to people than to dominate them, more ‘manhood’ to abide by thought-out principles rather than blind reflex. Toughness is in the soul and spirit, not in muscles and an immature mind.

“I like to party.
And I like to drink.
I like a woman who can me think.
I like adventure.
And I like to dance.
I like a woman who’s taking a chance.

I’d like to be lovers, between you and me.
Between you and me.”

- Mike Williams (from the new Thought record, “Politics for Kids”)

Amen, Mike.

Over the past few months I’ve recorded saxophone on a few television commercials for Crest Toothpaste, Trix Yogurt and Quilted Northern. The testing phase for commercials can be a very long time so at this point the Crest commercial is the only one on the air. I’ll write an update when the others go live. Listen for the saxophone:

“Re-examine all you have been told, dismiss what insults your soul.”
