Is your glass half full or half empty?
Despite some snarky posts on this blog, in my personal life I've always tended to see the glass as half full.
In the past my college friends and I have discussed the question, "Are people basically good or basically bad?"
My friend "The Machine" and I vote that "people are basically good," "Frenchy" says people are rotten, and Bobby M says people are neither good nor bad, but basically just selfish and self-centered. These are all really bright people, and we just disagree about this facet of human nature.
With this in mind, here's a glass-half-full thought for the 500,000 St. Louisans (the majority of whom I think are basically good people) without power: Think about how much cheaper your electrical bill will be this month.
Peace out!
Oh, one more note: According to the urban dictionary, "peace out" can either mean "fu-k off" or "goodbye." It can also mean either "to leave" or "to kill."
I guess it depends on whether your glass is half full or half empty.
Seacrest out!

Not complaining but clarifying, it's not that people are "basically" good, as if most of them are, or all things considered, they come out just ahead. People ARE good. To the core, and our goodness is our very humanity. It's not a glass half-full, but a very full glass.
Granted, the water can be cloudy with some floaters in it, and some should be under a boil order. But those who drink it in will find it truly refreshing. Not to mention the hints of spice and gentle nose of...is that blackberry currants?
