Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)

Show of hands now… who thinks that changing your personality (parts of it or wholesale re-do) should be a laughing matter?  …ok the rest of you, who thinks that a person changing their personality (for the better) is a laugh provoking matter?  …ok you go over there, next to the first group.

All you Readers do realize that we have separated the clarks from the scotts from the rogers, don’t you?  (this is the effectivenessity of the Wakefield Doctrine)

…we trust that you (Readers) realize that we also know the (probable) emotional state of the three groups of Readers that we have created here, right? Said states being:

a) amused, b) excited and, c) annoyed

This assertion in no way comprises a value-judgement of the three personality types, but does comprise a demonstration of the semi-practical value that Readers may avail themselves of, provided they invest  just a little bit of time and effort. But since you have put in this much effort lets offer you this small, yet useful insight into the worldview of Our Three Contestants!

• clarks laugh too much
• scotts laugh the best of all, an un-restrained kind of laugh that most clarks will give a little extra to elicit
• rogers laugh the least, but not because they are not amused, but because to be amused (by the world means something entirely different to a roger, than it means to a clark or a scott)
• a roger does not, ordinarily, laugh at the world. they can (and do) laugh at people (mostly clarks) but the world and life is much too grave a thing to laugh at, which is not to say they are humorless

That should hold us until tomorrow. Don’t forget! later in this week… a new Friend of the Doctrine will be featured in a Post!
Not sure yet which day, Wednesday or possibly Thursday, I guess that means you have to check in each and every damn day!

* get the explanation, not the change your personality part.
