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

You know what one of the longest-running ambition of this here blog here is?

(No, we do not mean:

  • to have a million subscribed followers
  • encountering people on the street saying, loudly enough to heard from our passing car, “You and what army, scott?” “Oh man, what a roger” “Your surroundings, dude! Come back to the planet earth, clark!”
  • being included in the custom, stay-at-home-and-still-speak-every-language pack of both Rosetta Stone and Babel Fish
  • earn a comfortable living and increase the value of the common stock in Wakefield Doctrine (NYSE: WD) from selling DocTees and Hats (“…for your damn head”)

We’ve finished our little list but wanted to be sure to have a place for the far side of the parenthesis.)

Well, if you search, wait, we’ll do it for you…

ah ha! a reprint for ‘the Perfect Wakefield Doctrine post’

…but before we paste it, lets just define the perfect Wakefield Doctrine from a contemporary perspective: a single post, of less than fifteen hundred words (more or less) that, if presented to a first-time Reader, would enable them to see the clarks, scotts and rogers in their everyday world. Furthermore, she, (this first-time Reader), would grasp the core concepts (i.e. three characteristic personal realities, the relationship of the individual to the world around them and the people who make it up, the Everything Rule and, finally, the value of having an additional perspective on the world and such) and find the fun and excitement of seeing the world as the other person is experiencing it.

What fun.

(Unsurprisingly, we found 344 posts in a search for ‘the perfect Wakefield Doctrine post’. We did say it’s a goal, like, from the very beginning. What part of “Hey! Are you still writing blogposts on your personality theory thing? What’s it been, eleven years? Two-thousand-how-many individual posts?!! Don’cha think you oughta give it, you know, a rest? lol)

anyway: below is one of the first, perfect Wakefield Doctrine posts:  oh yeah… Readers know we’re about nothing here if we’re not about trying to be as honest as possible** so, Full Disclosure: the links from the two music videos did not survive the years. The links here are contemporary links to the two songs with ‘Time’ in their respective titles. Think about it… 2010!! Hey, at least we’re sure what we were doing on a certain day twelve years ago. Well, part of the day. Ok, if you insist, the early-morning-hours of the day…. for about an hour or so… if you insist wait

damn! it was a Sunday, yeah…. hold on, I’ll try

jeez louise!  it (WeatherUnderground) said that the weather here on Sunday in 2010 was clear and the temperature ranged between 15 and 22 degrees F. calm winds and sunrise at 7:14 am

hokey smoke!! Thanks guys… this little exercise might have yielded some interesting information on my weak-tertiary rogerian aspect. thanks, a lot.

Now the time has come. There are things to realize. Time has come today

January 3, 2010

Time.

In the time it takes to write this, it is about time this subject is addressed, when will it be time to get serious….it’s about Time.

The un-marked Rolodex stopped spinning this morning and came up Chambers Brothers, which means the topic is Time. (I will say with pride  that I resisted the Pink Floyd and stayed with the original source.)

On with it then.  Everything can be seen in light of the Wakefield Doctrine, ever thang.  Even Time.  Especially Time.

(BTW I did make some New Year’s resolutions, and primary among them was to present the Doctrine in as effective a manner as possible, which means that every Post/any Post contain something of the ‘real world’ that will offer concrete and objective expressions of the Wakefield Doctrine.  And I will not stint to present the Doctrine in as many different ‘contexts’ as may make themselves available.)

Time to start?

clarks are of the future, scotts of the present and rogers of the past.
(for clarks) the future never arrives, (for scotts) the present is over too soon and (for rogers) the past is essential.

All very obvious, but what are we to learn about the ‘worldview’ of each of the three in this context?

clarks, as well known by now, live in their heads.  They inhabit the world as outsiders, for various reasons clarks feel the need to earn the respect and acceptance of virtually everyone else they encounter.  Implicit in this statement is the idea that they must make an extra effort, to compensate. Being clarks, they are perfectly suited to the task; come up with a plan, something no one has thought of, in order to do something to redeem themselves…in the future.  clarks are doomed by both the (false) premise and the un-manageable definition of success.  But clarks live in their heads and their strengths are their downfall.  They are trapped by an idea, false to the rest of the world, but true to circular logic inherent in a worldview of ‘me and the rest of the world’.  And as Time passes, the requirements of the gesture that earns the respect of everyone else, grows and grows. Impossible expectations become a way of life that trades effort for acceptance, surrenders any chance to realise the falseness of the original distinction in exchange for the illusion that one more plan might be the one to make it all worthwhile.

scotts, people of action, they are the ones that live in the here and now (without the serenity).  Actions speak louder than words? Actions speak in place of thought.  The very distinctive trait of scotts, their living in and of the present, imbues them with certainty.  If your mind is reflected in your acts and your acts are of the present then you will have a certainty of purpose, which is why, for good or (very, very often) bad, scotts are the leaders.  Most people, most of the time prefer to listen (and by extension, follow) the person with the most certainty, conviction, sureness.  That would be your nearby scott.
(There is a ‘test’ utilized in sales, specifically timeshare sales, in which the sales representative will meet the customers, talk about what they will be doing in the next couple of hours and then abruptly say “follow me”.  Without hesitation, without looking back to see if the customers are, the rep will walk off.  If they follow a sale is a near certainty, if one or both people have not followed the rep knows there is work to be done.)
The negative aspect of Time to a scott?  (One word: ‘getting old’).  Age. scotts are not the ones who ‘age well’.  Since most of their lives are lived physically, in action/in motion the decline of health and physical prowess is anathema to the scott, both male and female, (for parallel but slightly different reasons).  Want to scare a scott? tell them they are getting old. (might want to be sure your exit path is clear first, though).

rogers? too easy. (Is there a genealogist in the house?) Call from the Department of Redundancy Department1, for the first rogers  to pick of the courtesy phone…As we know the strength of rogers is the source of their limitations.  They organise and they preserve (for posterity).  But Everything a roger deems valuable enough to preserve is considered Perfect.  (As in, ‘improve on this? are you crazy didn’t you just hear the guy say Perfect?). For a roger, ‘if it is worth doing it is worth repeating,…without change or alteration’.

Damn, what a busy morning we gots here.

BREAKTIME!!!!

OK,  back to work.

Let’s consider the ‘point’ of todays’ Post.  Time is the universal, inescapable common experience.  Only problem is that we all live through it differently and more importantly, we all view the effects of Time in very different ways(or to be more exact, three different ways).  And the Wakefield Doctrine is nothing if it is not an effort to find new ways to see the world through the eyes of another person.

(Hey Slovinanss!, it’s snowing out.  Early class!  Go out there and step into the shoes of the others, have some fun.)

Mr. Chambers, if you will…

1) phrase from the totally wonderful Firesign Theater (just find an old person, ask them), specifically from a line in the ‘I Think We Are All Bozos On This Bus’ album. (Album? hey I did say old person)

TToT -the Wakefield Doctrine-

September 25, 2022 By

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

This is the Wakefield Doctrine’s contribution to the Ten Things of Thankful (TToT) bloghop.

The invitation is to share the people, places and things that have elicited, inspired and otherwise inspired one to experience the state of gratitude. Either as a fleeting state, say, when we slow down at a curve in the road for no particular reason and there turns out to be a radar trap waiting, or a long(er) state-of-mind; remembering how, on Saturday nights we’d would stop at the local McDonald’s on the way home and pick up a quarter-pounder, large fries, strawberry shake and a plain hamburger. After turning on the tv, we’d prepare put the 1/4 pounder and fries on a sandwich plate, along with the plain hamburger, sans bun, cut into quarters. We’d put the plate on the arm of the loveseat where Ola sat, right next to the couch facing the tv. With the food about six inches from Ola’s nose and teeth, we’d always act surprised at forgetting the strawberry shake in the kitchen, jump up and say, ‘Be right back’. Ola would look at us with that canine look of amused patience and wait. Once we returned, she’d accept her hamburger pieces as we ate together.

The memory brings a smile now, many years later.

This week our grat list includes:

 

1) Una

2) Phyllis  ‘The Cottage in the Woods Adventure Part 3.7’ (We’ll ask you, the Reader to imagine a vehicle with a full roof rack, a ladder on the back, a winch on the front bumper and a ‘snorkle’ on the exhaust system…. like that)

3) the Wakefield Docrtrine

4) serial stories ‘the Whitechapel Interlude‘ and ‘the Case of the Missing Fig Leaf‘

5) Six Sentence Story (the blophop for people who enjoy writing but don’t have a garret (or a publisher or, for that matter, an agent. Mostly because an agent would most likely be, all, “Six Sentences…that’s it. You’re messing with me, right?”)

6) vidchats (because it’s more fun at those times in a thoughtful discussion when you want to interrupt the other person, i.e. waving arms, leaning forward in chair (towards camera on top of computer) lol

7) writing the story, ‘Almira’ (for, in the course of doing research, providing the opportunity to acquire a Cliff Notes level of awareness of the worker’s rights movement in the early 20th C.)

“I’ll be all around in the dark. I’ll be everywhere. Wherever you can look, wherever there’s a fight, so hungry people can eat, I’ll be there. Wherever there’s a cop beatin’ up a guy, I’ll be there. I’ll be in the way guys yell when they’re mad. I’ll be in the way kids laugh when they’re hungry and they know supper’s ready, and when the people are eatin’ the stuff they raise and livin’ in the houses they build, I’ll be there, too.” (Tom Joad ‘Grapes of Wrath’ John Steinbeck film version)

8) Friend of the Doctrine Nick (hey! Nick! Thanks for the cover (“Well, sure, Mrs. Cleaver we were studying in the library the whole time.”)

9) something something 

10) Secret Rule 1.3 (Well, jeez, did you see that part about ‘Secret’?) (well, sure, but ya gotta ask, ya know?)

Flyday -the Wakefield Doctrine-

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

Hey, we went way back in the archives for this ‘un.

(Interesting. Reading old posts, looking at both ‘style’ and how the Doctrine is described and/or explained. Example: this post from 2010 was using 1st Person (mostly) and, while we did not yet make the explicit definition that it is how we relate ourselves to the world around us, there was still that sense of: personality type, from the Doctrine perspective is more of the function of our experience of the world than it is the product of impulses. tropisms and… favorite foods ‘n shit.)

Let’s stop the adieuing  and get to it

*

..(BONUS).personality types, (INSERT) insights into behavior (TODAY)and a little backstory (ONLY!)for good measure! the Wakefield Doctrine

January 30, 2012
Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine ( the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers ).

In a recent Video Friday Interview, when asked what changes or additions might improve the blog, Claire Peek suggested  providing insight into the ‘why of the Wakefield Doctrine’. (As Claire put it  “…A new Reader might find interesting how the Doctrine was born but especially why….”  ) Far be it from us to shy away from a difficult task, in this case it is not so much a matter of the (historical) record of how the Wakefield Doctrine came to be, but rather the personal side of that creation/evolution/development. That is the challenge for today.

Easy part first!  The ‘Eureka Moment of the  Wakefield Doctrine ( nee the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers ):

In the early 1980’s, Scott (the progenitor scott) worked at a music store in Pawtucket. He was the main salesman and also ran the repair department (of the store), this included not only repairing musical instruments and equipment that he sold, but any equipment that might be in need of repair, including various types of tape recorders and other similar equipment.

One day I happened to stop by the store to visit scott while he worked. While there, a customer came into the store, went to the ‘repair department where scott and I were talking and presented to scott what was known as a  ‘duel cassette recorder’  (This device had the capacity to record two cassette cartridges at once and was most often used to copy the contents of one cassette to another cassette, what we would call today, making a back up. Among the controls on this ‘dubbing recorder’ were two of all the normal tape recorder controls: volume, treble and bass. Where it was different from a single cassette recorder was that it had a Master Volume control dial, which, as the name implies controlled the overall sound output of the device.) The recorder that the customer placed on the counter appeared to be new and had no signs of damage or abuse. (As the customer approached the counter, I stepped back and Scott looked up and said, ‘What can we do for you’?   The customer said to  Scott, “this thing is brand new, it worked for a couple of days, then it stopped working entirely, I can’t figure out what is wrong”.

Scott looked at the recorder briefly, without saying a word and then reached under the counter and brought out some (black) electrical tape, and tearing off a 2 inch piece of tape, taped over the Master Volume control (after returning the dial to it’s highest setting). After completing this, scott slid the device back over towards the customer and simply said, “ There, its all right now”

The customer asked to plug in the recorder, took a cassette from his pocket, tried the recorder, ran it through it’s paces; seeing that the broken tape recorder that he brought into the store now worked like new  thanked scott and walked out of the store without another word. A totally satisfied customer.

From my perspective the world shifted. For reasons not clear to this day, I not only saw what scott had seen (the nature of the equipment problem) but I saw that his solution implied a reality, a ‘context’ that was clearly different from the one that I assumed to be the same as everyone experienced.

That is the factual side of the creation of the Wakefield Doctrine. The personal side?

I had plenty of friends. Or more to the fact, I had a close circle of friends that I seemed to have acquired rather deliberately.  Sometimes, when I hear or read about people expressing anxiety about making new friends in a new school or a changed job, I will laugh to myself. I still find (in the fact of) my own comfort that this thing that real people seem to worry about, (i.e.making friends) is really so not difficult while at the same time/all the time, I feel so isolated from people in general. And the irony of this is not wasted on me! I accept now (as I did back then)  that this is just another aspect to the weird world that I inhabit.
In any event, back to the ‘personal side of the creation of the Wakefield Doctrine, I knew back then that I had two things I could count on: having a small circle of friends who ‘got me’ and living with a pervasive, never-ending sense of lacking something…  fitting in, being a part of, knowing what I was supposed to be doing in order to be like everyone else. Call it what you like, it is this certainty that ‘I am different from’ and  because ‘I am missing something’ that defines who I am and once I figure out what (or where) that missing thing is, I will no longer be different from everyone else.
I suspected then, (as I now know for certain) that the thing I needed to understand was right in front of me, but not having a clue as to what it was like, the only thing to do was try to watch everything.
Watching is not exactly synonymous with living, ( lol a joke for the clarks reading this) and so I would settle for watching as I knew that the life that I thought I was in was not really the ‘real life’ that everyone else seemed to be enjoying.
Finally, the moment described above, the scene in the music store. That I would make the leap from what I observed to what I knew, what I concluded (about reality and people) was nothing less than a total frickin gift… if I had a stronger rogerian aspect, I imagine I would go on at length about inspired insight, or serendipity but I do not have that strong a rogerian aspect. If the truth is not obvious, I have a strong (barely restrained) secondary scottian aspect. But that is a whole ‘nother Post.
So as the Lady once said, ‘that’s how it began’.

 

You looking for the Bonus Inset?  Right this way, yo. This is a clip from a Post written last July, very good explanation of the clark, scott roger thing!  We figured, hey this layout really needs shaking up, so lets do an overlay Title/new Content*

The Wakefield Doctrine has 3 personality type categories: clarks, scotts and rogers. You are mostly one (of these 3) but you still have the other 2 in background.
…and when we say personality types? what we mean is, “What kind of world do you walk out to every morning”?  Because this Doctrine is not about your likes and dislikes, favorite colors or foods, interests, hobbies, avocation or inspiration. It is about the nature of your reality.

Yes, you read that right. Reality. Each of the three types of personality in the Wakefield Doctrine experience a different reality. Nothing weird or earth-shakingly different. No crystals or herbs or inner vibrations required either. Just this:

  • clarks exist (in the world) as the perennial outsider. They are normal in every other respect, it’s just that they know that they don’t belong, they are not like other people. But, at the same time clarks are the quiet, creative, funny (except you have to really pay attention or you’ll miss their jokes), self-deprecating, hardworking people that are there all around you all this time;
  • scotts are so in your life (and you will get this description only if you are not a scott) but they are the natural leaders, natural salespeople, natural entertainers… you getting the theme here with this personality type? natural. scotts are the people who live life by the moment without restraint, consideration, forethought, it’s a wonder they live as long as they do
  • rogers (you know who you are, and right now you are denying it) rogers are the everyday, friendly, easy to talk to people that populate every workplace and classroom and corner bar. rogers will be the person you turn to when you have a secret and rogers will be the one you turn to when you want to learn the latest gossip, they are the engineers, the lawyers, the doctors and heart and soul of every PTA and neighborhood watch program in the world.

The Doctrine is different from all the other mainstream and respectable personality and self-improvement systems out there because we insist that it is not just you, it is the world itself that accounts for your life, it’s trials and tribulations, good times, bad times (we know you’ve had your share).
What sets us apart and the reason you should spend time here, is that the Wakefield Doctrine offers everyone a set of tools that is specifically meant for not only your personality type, but (these tools) are meant to work and be useful in the world that you are living in today!

*the ‘extra’ words in the Title today were supposed to look like they were ‘drawn’ over the original Title, you know…graffiti like   whatever

Wuesday -the Wakefield Doctrine-

September 7, 2022 By

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

so… what is the point of all this?

the posts, both funny, touching and bold

the theory itself, so familiar (to some) so stupid or dumb to many?

Two words: clarks and self-improving oneself

Seeing how this is being written for the Outsiders out there (lol) we’ll keep it brief. (Notice, as we know you did, we did not promise to keep it simple, just brief).

We all have the potential to experience the world as any of the three predominant worldviews.

We ‘are’ however, of one and not three personal realities. (Our personality types are, for each of us, perfect. This because, from the Doctrine perspective, our personality reflects our best effort to contend with the world as we experience it. From, as John Sebastian says in the music vid below, “…since they’s babies”)

Where were we?

oh, yeah self-improving ourselfs.

Say, you’re a clark. You realize that, sometimes, people relate themselves to you in, like, a disrespectful manner. (ikr? lol). Sometimes it becomes more than you can stand and something happens and you act in a manner that is…quite unlike you. While you will not, by definition, be aware of this ‘altered state’ while it is occurring, you may find yourself reflecting on it at a later date. (lol… sure, try and not)

anyway. That ‘altered state’ more likely than not is what we call your secondary aspect. (There is a tertiary aspect, of course, but you’re way ahead of us already.)

short post: You do not need to ‘learn’ or ‘acquire’ something/anything that is not already a part of you. You simply need to realize it.

(Warning: Using ourselfs as an example, I’m a clark with a significant secondary scottian aspect. (no kidding, lol). But I am not a scott. A scott has trained and practiced for their entire life being the apex Predator they are. rogers too…. well, now you might want to shift your imagery to some kind of Shao Lanolin monastery and moving the hibachi from place to place in the yard.)

you know what the biggest challenge in writing posts to explain the Doctrine is? getting across the idea that personal reality is real. Here in the numerous Wakefield Doctrine blog posts, we don’t simply demonstrate/illustrate/pontificate on the characteristics of an Outsider because we developed that way. We act that way because that is the reality from which we experience the world.

Wanna hear worse than that??!  The world around us is a reality in which we are the Outsider. We’re not indulging in mumbling, hanging in the shadows, dreaming of the future while the present slips away at twenty-four hours-per-day just because it’s easy. We do that (and more) because we’re in that world.

But…but!! the Doctrine, while not an Answer, is a(n) additional perspective. A perspective on our reality and (the reality) of the world around us and the people who make it up.

Because of this perspective, we need not be trapped in the permanently separate personal reality of the Outsider.

… tomorrow, ‘Six Sentence Story Day!!*

*phew! getting kinda heavy ’round here…lol

Mondas Reprintus -the Wakefield Doctrine-

September 5, 2022 By

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

We thought, this being a local holiday, to treat ourselfs to a very old Doctrine post.

Interesting to read how we wrote back then. The core principles are the same, a couple of stylistic changes, i.e. not the least of which is that we hadn’t completely shifted to Third Person Impersonal. (3rd Person motto: “Yeah, we know that you know that it’s me, but lets see you try and prove it in course! …and besides, who doesn’t hear, in your head, how silly the testimony would sound. “And you, Mr. clarkscottroger, insist that those were your fingers on the keyboard? And, are those fingers here, today, in the courtroom? Let the record show, the witness is trying to sit on his hands...”)

But serially.

Since the beginning of this web-log, a couple of truths have been revealed that were not immediately apparent when we started.

Hey! I thought you said I would be famous by now and someone else would write these things

September 4, 2010

Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers) which just happens to be a fun, unique and productive way to look at the people in our lives and the way they act. With the Wakefield Doctrineyou can not only understand why they do the things they do, you can predict how they will act in any situation, at home, at work, at school and at play!mother theresa, yo

It  has been a productive week, in a exhilarating and depressing sort of way, here at the Doctrine. Exhilarating because we are beginning to better understand the obstacles that are before us as we continue our efforts to spread the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers across the globe and depressing because we are beginning to better understand the obstacles to spreading the theory of clark, scotts and rogers across the globe.  To wit: so far everyone who ‘gets’ the Wakefield Doctrine learned it directly. They were shown who in their circle of friends was a clark, show was a scott, who was a roger. The obvious advantage of this direct, ‘in person’ being the examples used to demonstrate and illustrate the three types was always correct and true to form. Plus there would be an immediate feedback loop between teacher and pupil.  And probably the most helpful thing of all, the simple fact that the teacher enjoyed the Doctrine and we all know that enthusiasm on the part of the teacher always conveys to a pupil. The damn thing is simply fun.

And therein lies our challenge. How do we convey the fun of the Doctrine? Limited to the present medium of communication, effectively teaching by email, we need to present the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers in such a manner that not only can the Reader  learn the characteristic traits of each of the three… but at the same time…have…….fun.         (yipee)

Well, it is way, way too late to stop now. The Doctrine is out there. We have Readers who come and read this blog and they/you deserve the opportunity to ‘get’ the real fun of understanding the theory of clarks, scotts androgers. There are approximately 100,000,000 people out in the internet every day, looking for exactly what we, here at the Wakefield Doctrine have to offer. So while we are hard at work making the format (of this blog) more ‘findable’, eventually they will all stop by and read this thing. So lets do the math! there are only 3 Progenitors and 4 DownSprings and if we divide the number of potential Readers equally among us and  if we make it our full time jobs to talk to everyone….that’s still…(carry the 1, divide….) ….(shit this calculator only goes to 10 millions….)… (screw it, add a zero…) …thats 14,285,714 people each!  Hey! that’s not as bad as I thought… let’s see now, we can  go out 5 days a week, see 4.5 people a day (on average, of course!) that means it will take us…90,702 days to reach ‘n teach everyone! (…one last calculation….)  that’s only 248.49 years!

I feel better now. It is do-able. It is just going to take time.  Er,  Readers? any of you happen to be Jehovah Witnesses? We really, really could use the help…seriously.  Some people, (scotts) like to make fun of Witnesseses {to a scott it must look like a group of Fenway Franks walking up the sidewalk to their door} but I actually admire them (…no! a clark liking something that everyone else is laughing at? that can’t be!!)… in all sincerity I give them props for their willingness to go against the stream and do their thing, and you’ve got to admit, they gots mad door-to-door skills.  Anyway, if there are any Jehovah Witnesesses among our Readers, I will not point you out, your secret is safe with us…but maybe you have some ad space in that Watch Tower mag?

So. We will keep up the efforts here. The Wakefield Doctrine can be learned from reading this blog, the Pages and the Posts and everything else. We will be reaching out through as many channels as possible.  Ms AKH seems to be donning the apparel of the Mistress of Publicitousity and she is doing yeoman-ette work in that regard. As a matter of record, she is Commenting about finding a Reader who is actually willing to admit to liking (sort of) this thing of ours!
“Hello (your name goes here) Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine!! Everyone help give me give (your name goes here) a warm Doctrine welcome. Hidy!”

So that gets us started for another day. Just so no one thinks that we do not have totally appreciative Readers, following are a couple of admiring Comments that I found (for some strange reason) in our Spam Folder:

Considerably, the blog post is actually the greatest on this worthy topic. I concur with your decisions and will thirstily look forward to see your approaching updates. Saying thanks will not just be adequate, for the phenomenal lucidity in your writing. I will at once grab your feeds to stay informed of any updates. Delightful work and much success in your business endeavors! Have a nice day
(Jaghof@crutchesandcrips.com/pavethe bay.com)

Excellent post I must say.. Simple but yet interesting and engaging.. Keep up the awesome work
(ethancavety@ham-on-rye.com/theuk-y’all)

“they like us!! they really, really like us”…(Sorry cheap joke)

(Did someone say, “Hey Doctrine People, play us some old people rock and we will buy your hats (for our damn heads) and will even write Comments that are real, and thoughtful and we don’t mind if they are so totally off-base that one could only wonder if the writer (of such Comments) was drugged, overly tired or a Jehovah Witness!)

 

(…is that the 80’s I hear in the next classroom?)

Nah…sometimes we even….wait a minute, there is  a well-dressed family at the door and they seem to be upset
