“It is not the critic who counts…

not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.”
—Theodore Roosevelt
Speech at the Sorbonne, Paris, April 23, 1910
Life is short, spend it in the arena.
Merry Christmas, Tnet.

hello. how 'bout that ride in? i guess that's why they call it sin city. you guys might not know this, but i consider myself a bit of a loner. i tend to think of myself as a one-man wolf pack. but when my sister brought fm home, i knew he was one of my own. and my wolf pack... it grew by one. so there... there were two of us in the wolf pack... i was alone first in the pack, and then fm joined in later. and six months ago, when fm introduced me to you guys, i thought, "wait a second, could it be?" and now I know for sure, i just added a few more guys to my wolf pack. us wolves, running around the desert together, in las vegas looking for strippers and cocaine.
so tonight, lets make a toast to christmas!

Maverick would say "that's one of life's mysteries sir"..
Merry Christmas Balm.. we've crossed swords (but have we really, I kinda doubt it) but you're ok by me. I hope your 9V battery came out ok, but don't try a D cell.

When he said this, Teddy hadn't crossed social media.
Now the critic counts for more than the man in the arena. And sometimes gets paid for his opinion.
I agree that Teddy SHOULD be right...no way a doer should be regarded more poorly than a nondoing talker, so why do we have so many talking head channels?
