		<description>[...] The B. Wilde Column: Got A Laughin&#8217; Place? My article 2 days ago is focused on the same ideals as this article. I hadn&#8217;t read his yet but it gave me chills when I did because we are talking about similar truths. Check both out (his above, mine below): http://www.postcardsfromthefunnyfarm.com/live-in-the-briar-patch/ [...]</description>

		<description>This is my favorite ride of all time.  I love the lessons the story teaches and find that there are many applications and interpretations within.  I get the point you are making here.  You have given me something to think about regarding facing my fears.  Not sure if it&#039;s appropriate to reference one of my own posts within the comments section of others blogs.  Perhaps you could tell me the protocol.  But I share with you a post I too wrote from the story of Brer Rabbit.  It&#039;s called, &quot;Got A Laughin Place?&quot;    Here &#039;tis: http://thebwildecolumn.blogspot.com/2008/09/got-laughin-place.html

		<description>Ummm, I think one of us missed the point of that story...

I thought the idea was that we should lie to our enemies and make them think we like things that we really don&#039;t and don&#039;t like things that we really do. This way, they will withold things we wouldn&#039;t want (they think we really do want that) and when they want to do &quot;bad&quot; things to us, they will really be doing things that we enjoy or sending us where we want to go...this way we will be &quot;laughing all the way to the briar patch&quot; :)

Now, who&#039;s right, Damien or me?

...I suppose it&#039;s going to be Damien since this is his site.
