Free Speech

This does seem to be the case these days. I occasionally say stuff at work for public consumption where I think to myself: "Ooooppps I probably shouldn't have said that ..... Oh well, too late to take it back." Usually it's in an attempt at being funny or of an argumentative nature towards an idea that I don't care for. Sometimes I think that we are much more rebellious in our older years than we ever were in our teenage years. Maybe because the possible consequences are something we often scoff at.

Usually after such an episode, one is careful for a day or two to avoid a repeat performance ...... until defenses drop and the next moment of free speech just flows out.
