All this aggravation ain't satisfaction in me

At the moment, listening to Elvis is distracting me from crafting a more creative entry (and minus the fact that I completely missed that the Horns football game today is actually in Orlando--against Central Florida). So, instead, a quote for y'all:

“We Americans believe that there’s a solution mystique, that for every problem there’s a solution, and it just ain’t so.... Risk is there. Contingency is a part of human life, and there’s nothing we can do to get rid of all contingency and all risk. What we have to have is the courage to live with a certain degree of uncertainty.”

-John Silber
from "John Silber Gets the Last Word" by Avrel Seale in The Alcalde (the Texas Exes's magazine).
Silber offers further explanation of this idea in this op-ed from the Boston Globe earlier this year.

A little less conversation, a little more action, please
All this aggravation ain't satisfaction in me
A little more bite and a little less bark
A little less fight and a little more spark
Close your mouth and open up your heart and baby satisfy me
