I'm actually working on a project today so I don't have the time to put together a thoughtful blog.  But, I saw this quote and it made a lot of sense and I wish more people would take this into consideration.

To have a right to do a thing is not at all the same as to be right in doing it.
  - GK Chesterton

If a person were to think about this it would apply to a lot of situations.  I had two thoughts go through my head immediately.  First, imminent domain.  I don't think I need to elaborate too much because I think we all have seen evidence of this and went, HUH?

Second, freedom of speech.  I'm thinking more of the extremists.  Yes, we have the right to free speech, but there are some occasions where it would be prudent to keep your mouth shut!  I'm sure we can all think of examples of this one!

Here are your Irish Blessings (or Toasts, if you wish)

May the best day of your past be the worst day of your future.

May you get all your wishes but one,
So you always have something to strive for.

Here's to you, here's to me,
the best of friends we'll always be.
But if we ever disagree,
forget you here's to ME!!

I couldn't resist the last one, LOL:)

my vote: At night, walk 10 miles on the shoulder of a loud and busy highway in peak traffic hours

10 Miles at peak traffic....Like Office Space - I'll be walking faster than the drivers are driving.
