And we are the kind of people who want to "figure things out," get to the heart of the matter, to know, "what's what." We don't want to play the sap, or the flunky, to anyone, or anything, any idea, ideology, political party, or whatever. We want to know. We want to be smart, in the know, with it, happening. We want to play the inside game.
We may suspect that the Universe is like one enormous, always expanding onion, and as we peel the layers away, there's just more onion, more layers and less substance. Less substance, more mystery. But who knows? We are the kind of folk who peel onions for a living. Often with tears in our eyes. A Private Eye. All-seeing. Alive. Aware. Awake. Wondering WTF?
