Good to have all of you back. Even though I seriously doubt that you’re ever the happiest person around, even on a relative basis (hell, this is Manhattan, there’s always at least one jumper up on a ledge).

I do agree with clueless (did I just say that? did I?) that reality challenged is the wrong term – one would argue (preferably with Fool on the Hill playing in the background) that it’s precisely the insane who see reality most clearly. I don’t think you should give in to the social pressure of accepting insanity as being a liability – I think those of us who are insane should stand up and take pride in our insanity, take pride in being several standard deviations beyond the human mean (hey, why do you think they call it the NORMAL distribution). Was it Seneca who said that there can be no genius without madness? Maybe if we embrace the madness within us, people will believe that we’re actually geniuses.

2 inaugurate ur comment space:
even reality *challenged* seems to indicate that there is something wrong with the mind of the person…I think u shd just call urself *gifted*…a creative mind…alternately, a freak !
Ps- nice layout!
