I think I understsood the appeal when I was 17. Luckily I had enough bad experiences to wise up pretty quickly...

I'm sorry to hear that. I don't understand any attraction to drugs ( Although my reasons for never starting smoking is vecause I am tight.) I just try to be there for those who are attracted.

Scary because we all plod along innocently, feeling like overly-opinonated kids and then bam. One day, someone actually starts listening.. and we're like..... ahhh, okay didn't quite mean that bit about invading Paris. Was a but drunk actually........ xxxx

Congrats on that. It is constantly amazing how much of an impact the normal ones like us can have. 
I hope you don't work for the American company I dealt with this week however.

As early as tomorrow evening, I may be getting news that I will be on pretty much permenant travel for my job. Probably one to two weeks a month in DC and the rest in a variety of locations around the US.
I am not sure if this is a good or bad thing yet.
I may need to find a fish and coral sitter...

I'll keep what I've got, but it sounds like a happy truck.
I have dreamed in color. I have dreamed in black and white. I have even dreamed in sepia tone and technicolor. But last night, I dreamed in musical.
Yes, that's right . . . musical . . .
Does this strike anyone else as odd?

yes, I agree
In general, I am a straight-forward, say what I mean, mean what I say, content person that can keep on going despite any negative influences in his life.
