Being yourself has far more to do with actually being honest in not only who you are, but the kind of people you want to hang around with.

"Gather your personal effects and vacate the premises. You have twenty seconds to comply."
Why does one have to come out on top?
It doesn't *necessarily* end with one coming out on top but that is with the set of possibilities, so it's worth thinking about.
Then the 0.001% with natural immunity will rule the world.
the '85 Lynch film... did an excellent job of capturing the atmosphere of the milieu.
