[Vol. 2 Issue #40]
Friday
Sometimes, happy hour means time alone, reading, writing, and thinking about big things. There is some of that in our Friday post: what does inner peace look like to a soul? The day's poem makes us look at who we love and when we want them to leave. When the introspection is complete, grab a drink, look at a few photos of Halloween worldwide, and uncover a few celebrity punks to finish up.

Another philosopher and Bishop talk about the undisturbed mastery of oneself. It sounds like a course in Stoicism, but it's part of a quote from Bishop Fulton Sheen.
A thousand tiny agitations when met with the wrong expectation, and ten thousand more lopsided reactions will turn inner peace into manic anxiety and depression. On a less mountain-top version of the same thread, struggles in one area of your life can lead to struggles in every area of your life. Be mindful of the threads that connect each of them.

Pulled from the archives, we returned and grabbed a nifty little article from KERRANG! A favorite publication of ours, and link to it here. Yes, the article looks like the listicles you will see on many music websites, but the content is great and a bit of a surprise, which we love. Of the 12 celebs who are punks, here were the 3 who surprised us the most:
Peter Dinklage (GOT) – lead signer for a punk rock band called Whizzy.
Gillian Anderson (Scully X-Files) fan of Dead Kennedys and Skinny Puppy.
Justin Theroux – not a surprise, but KERRANG! Points out his T-shirt collection with the same Tees in our closet!
