Wow. Its A Leap Day. Indeed, our days having always been based on some manner of astral event, or a manifestation of our perpetual motion, it seems only just that we, not it, should adjust to deal with minor stellar imperfections. It seems that each day, we find the human race on the cusp of some new discovery. But it is in some ways pleasant and calming to know that, cry to the heavens as much as we may, neither the Sun nor Moon, nor any of our interstellar compatriots will take heed and bend, so much like the vines and trees that break through the once-virgin earth whose surface we have punctured, but will never destroy, a symbol of that which we cannot tame. That which exists, radical and entropic, everywhere.

Truly the truest form of humanity’s non-physical forcing of our society to conform with nature through dong the reverse. Math is created by us to describe and breathe life into patterns in nature, and in our own lives.

It was brought to us with the dust of an ancient time, the smoke of the pipe and hookah of the Indian, the man in Baghdad, the Greek, the Roman, the sweat of exertion and the ideas of man.

It is a concept that must exist with only itself to back itself up. Where is one without two, or zero without something one is in want of.

Like the Arab, the Indian, the Greek, the Roman, we are math. We make it grow as we do. And like it, was must ever change to stay the same. There are no rules that break in math, only new rules to be made.

Truly, it is one of our purest manifestations. And though many try to put its creation on God, or nature itself, we must look inward. It is born of our perceived need, and perpetuates because that need is true.

I wonder sometimes whether it is bad of me that I would like to be elected, at some point, to be President of something.  Of course, I do not question my ability to lead.  I’ll leave the opposition to do that.  Rather, I question my motives.

Is it normal that someone wants to be president so they can always wear suits and hang giant posters, bearing my image, that say “Obey El Presidente?” Just to see what people say?
