Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)
Was engaged in a conversation with Phyllis this morning that inevitably came round to the Doctrine, I believe the touch-point was personal reality and it made me think of the early days of this blog.
Back then, the pace was…different, faster, in the way of running across a field of rain-soaked snow, you know, keep the speed as high as possible because the ten-year-old inside knew that it was possible, if you did it right, to lift your foot even as you stepped forward. At a running pace, you’d try to not put your full weight on the lead foot, and basically, hop over it.
The better to not get your shoes soaked in the grey-snow pools lurking between the tufts of grass that offered a dry passage.
….where was I?
oh, yeah , the early years and the kinds of things we’d write to get attention
clarks think, scotts act and rogers feel (err not exactly fire-in-a-crowded-theatre level on the provocative meter)
I got one! clarks are crazy, scotts are stupid and rogers are dumb (distinctly remember when I came up with that one… interesting, the scotts laughed but the rogers (the Progenitor roger, no less) got really mad.)
ok, ok, one more then a music vid and its off to work
‘Everyone lives in a perfect world‘
(I stand by this statement, but will provide a hint as to why its so terribly true: a) we all live in a reality that is to a small, but meaningful degree, personal and 2) the world we encounter is a reflection of us (including parts and aspects we may not be aware of).
That’s a nice summation, yes, i am a bit crazy, thank you. And i know some very dumb and some very stupid people.
lol and the fun with the Doctrine, we’re (in a sense) all three and share the good and the not-so-good
I am grateful that my Rogerian box called reality has you in it.

LOL the 10 year old. Even as an adult, I still attempt the “run”. Get wet feet every time but sure is fun trying or maybe that should be more fun believing it will work! :D
So yeah. In a nutshell that’s it. Crazy, stupid and dumb. Would make a good (even refresher or reprint post) post qualifying those descriptors :D
The “perfect world”. Let’s talk about that too.
