Thank you Chrome. What a nice thing to say. You know, my father is from an older generation, but he is also old world in his thinking. He had a way of making me feel safe in this crazy world. Fairly recently he told me a friend of his called him to ask for advice. The friend's son had gotten his girlfriend pregnant, and this man wanted to know what my father thought he should do. The thing is, my father was annnoyed, wondering why his friend was bothering him with such nonsense. I was confused by my father's reaction, until I understood that he could only fathom one option...that the boy marry his pregnant gf.

I am sure I am not making this clear, but the point is that life was not this complicated thing to my father.

Of course, he has this daughter who obsesses and analyzes!

Oh and Lil, I do like the quote. For those of us who psychologically seem to climb every mountain, it's good to remember you can't eat every chile, or something like that!
